چکیده
Wolpert and Macready's No Free Lunch theorem proves that no search algorithm is better than any other over all possible discrete functions. The meaning of the No Free Lunch theorem has, however, been the subject of intense debate. We prove that for local neighborhood search on problems of bounded complexity, where complexity is measured in terms of number of basins of attraction in the search space a Gray coded representation is better than Binary in the sense that on average it induces fewer minima in a Hamming distance 1 search neighborhood.

An Improved Tabu Search Algorithm for Job Shop Scheduling Problem Trough Hybrid Solution Representations
Job shop scheduling problem (JSP) is an attractive field for researchers and production managers since it is a famous problem in many industries and a complex problem for researchers. Due to NP-hardness property of this problem, many meta-heuristics are developed to solve it. Solution representation (solution seed) is an important element for any meta-heuristic algorithm. Therefore, many resear...
متن کاملOptimisation of assembly scheduling in VCIM systems using genetic algorithm
Assembly plays an important role in any production system as it constitutes a significant portion of the lead time and cost of a product. Virtual computer-integrated manufacturing (VCIM) system is a modern production system being conceptually developed to extend the application of traditional computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) system to global level. Assembly scheduling in VCIM systems is ...
متن کاملMulti-period project portfolio selection under risk considerations and stochastic income
This paper deals with multi-period project portfolio selection problem. In this problem, the available budget is invested on the best portfolio of projects in each period such that the net profit is maximized. We also consider more realistic assumptions to cover wider range of applications than those reported in previous studies. A novel mathematical model is presented to solve the problem, con...
متن کاملAn Efficient Genetic Agorithm for Solving the Multi-Mode Resource-Constrained Project Scheduling Problem Based on Random Key Representation
In this paper, a new genetic algorithm (GA) is presented for solving the multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problem (MRCPSP) with minimization of project makespan as the objective subject to resource and precedence constraints. A random key and the related mode list (ML) representation scheme are used as encoding schemes and the multi-mode serial schedule generation scheme (MSSG...
متن کاملGENETIC AND TABU SEARCH ALGORITHMS FOR THE SINGLE MACHINE SCHEDULING PROBLEM WITH SEQUENCE-DEPENDENT SET-UP TIMES AND DETERIORATING JOBS
This paper introduces the effects of job deterioration and sequence dependent set- up time in a single machine scheduling problem. The considered optimization criterion is the minimization of the makespan (Cmax). For this purpose, after formulating the mathematical model, genetic and tabu search algorithms were developed for the problem. Since population diversity is a very important issue in ...
متن کاملComparison of Simulated Annealing, Genetic, and Tabu Search Algorithms for Fracture Network Modeling
The mathematical modeling of fracture networks is critical for the exploration and development of natural resources. Fractures can help the production of petroleum, water, and geothermal energy. They also greatly influence the drainage and production of methane gas from coal beds. Orientation and spatial distribution of fractures in rocks are important factors in controlling fluid flow. The obj...
