Performance Profile Assessment of Electromagnetism-like Algorithms for Global Optimization

چکیده
This paper introduces a modification on the movement force vector of the Birbil and Fang’s electromagnetism-like algorithm [1] for solving global optimization problems with bounded variables. The proposed movement vector combines the total force exerted on each point of the population, at the current iteration, with the rate of change in the force vector of a previous iteration. Several widely used benchmark problems were solved to compare the proposed modification with the original algorithm. A performance profile assessment shows the efficiency and robustness of the proposed modification.

Electromagnetism-like Algorithms for The Fuzzy Fixed Charge Transportation Problem
In this paper, we consider the fuzzy fixed-charge transportation problem (FFCTP). Both of fixed and transportation cost are fuzzy numbers. Contrary to previous works, Electromagnetism-like Algorithms (EM) is firstly proposed in this research area to solve the problem. Three types of EM; original EM, revised EM, and hybrid EM are firstly employed for the given problem. The latter is being firstl...

Traditional scheduling problems with the batch processing machines (BPM) assume that machines are continuously available, and no time is needed for their preventive maintenance (PM). In this paper, we study a realistic variant of flowshop scheduling which integrates flow shop batch processing machines (FBPM) and preventive maintenance for minimizing the makespan. In order to tackle the given pr...
متن کاملPerformance Comparison of Electromagnetism-Like Algorithms for Global Optimization
Electromagnetism-like (EML) algorithm is a new evolutionary algorithm that bases on the electromagnetic attraction and repulsion among particles. It was originally proposed to solve optimization problems with bounded variables. Since its inception, many variants of the EML algorithm have been proposed in the literature. However, it remains unclear how to simulate the electromagnetic heuristics ...
متن کاملElectromagnetism-like algorithm for fuzzy flow shop batch processing machines scheduling to minimize total weighted earliness and tardiness
In this paper, we study a flow shop batch processing machines scheduling problem. The fuzzy due dates are considered to make the problem more close to the reality. The objective function is taken as the weighted sum of fuzzy earliness and fuzzy tardiness. In order to tackle the given problem, we propose a hybrid electromagnetism-like (EM) algorithm, in which the EM is hybridized with a diversi...
