On the Integration of a TSP Heuristic into an EA for the Bi-objective Ring Star Problem

چکیده
This paper discusses a new hybrid solution method for a bi-objective routing problem, namely the bi-objective ring star problem. The bi-objective ring star problem is a generalization of the ring star problem in which the assignment cost has been dissociated from the cost of visiting a subset of nodes. Here, we investigate the possible contribution of incorporating specialized TSP heuristics into a multiobjective evolutionary algorithm. Experiments show that the use of this hybridization scheme allows a strict improvement of the generated sets of non-dominated solutions.

A Novel Adapted Multi-objective Meta-heuristic Algorithm for a Flexible Bi-objective Scheduling Problem Based on Physics Theory
We relax some assumptions of the traditional scheduling problem and suggest an adapted meta-heuristic algorithm to optimize efficient utilization of resources and quick response to demands simultaneously. We intend to bridge the existing gap between theory and real industrial scheduling assumptions (e.g., hot metal rolling industry, chemical and pharmaceutical industries). We adapt and evalua...
