New Genetic Operators for Solving TSP: Application to Microarray Gene Ordering
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper deals with some new operators of genetic algorithms for solving the traveling salesman problem (TSP). These include a new operator called, ”nearest fragment operator” based on the concept of nearest neighbor heuristic, and a modified version of order crossover operator. Superiority of these operators has been established on different benchmark data sets for symmetric TSP. Finally, the application of TSP with these operators to gene ordering from microarray data has been demonstrated.

A new approach to fuzzy quantities ordering based on distance method and its applications for solving fuzzy linear programming
Many ranking methods have been proposed so far. However, there is yet no method that can always give a satisfactory solution to every situation; some are counterintuitive, not discriminating; some use only the local information of fuzzy values; some produce different ranking for the same situation. For overcoming the above problems, we propose a new method for ranking fuzzy quantities based on ...
متن کاملSolving Traveling Salesman Problem based on Biogeography-based Optimization and Edge Assembly Cross-over
Biogeography-Based Optimization (BBO) algorithm has recently been of great interest to researchers for simplicity of implementation, efficiency, and the low number of parameters. The BBO Algorithm in optimization problems is one of the new algorithms which have been developed based on the biogeography concept. This algorithm uses the idea of animal migration to find suitable habitats for solvin...
متن کاملModification of the Fast Global K-means Using a Fuzzy Relation with Application in Microarray Data Analysis
Recognizing genes with distinctive expression levels can help in prevention, diagnosis and treatment of the diseases at the genomic level. In this paper, fast Global k-means (fast GKM) is developed for clustering the gene expression datasets. Fast GKM is a significant improvement of the k-means clustering method. It is an incremental clustering method which starts with one cluster. Iteratively ...
متن کاملAN EFFICIENT CROSSOVER OPERATOR FOR TRAVELING SALESMAN PROBLEM
Crossover operator plays a crucial role in the efficiency of genetic algorithm (GA). Several crossover operators have been proposed for solving the travelling salesman problem (TSP) in the literature. These operators have paid less attention to the characteristics of the traveling salesman problem, and majority of these operators can only generate feasible solutions. In this paper, a crossover ...
متن کاملIdentification of Alzheimer disease-relevant genes using a novel hybrid method
Identifying genes underlying complex diseases/traits that generally involve multiple etiological mechanisms and contributing genes is difficult. Although microarray technology has enabled researchers to investigate gene expression changes, but identifying pathobiologically relevant genes remains a challenge. To address this challenge, we apply a new method for selecting the disease-relevant gen...
