bedload transport is an essential component of river dynamics and estimation of its rate is important to many aspects of river management. in this study, measured bedload by helley- smith sampler was used to estimate the bedload transport of kurau river in malaysia. an artificial neural network, genetic programming and a combination of genetic programming and a neural network were used to estim...

This work details an auction-based model for problem decomposition in Genetic Programming classification. The approach builds on the population-based methodology of Genetic Programming to evolve individuals that bid high for patterns that they can correctly classify. The model returns a set of individuals that decompose the problem by way of this bidding process and is directly applicable to mu...

since lean concept has appeared many works have been done on decreasing or even eliminating of wastes such as extra inventory. although these studies have not taken into account expected availability seriously. so in this paper, a multiple objective decision making (modm) model has been developed by viewpoint of these subjects. they are decreasing wastes and increasing system availability. wast...

DNA sequence data contains a wealth of biologically useful information. Recent innovations in DNA sequencing technology have greatly increased our capacity to determine massive amounts of nucleotide sequences. These sequences can be used to specify the characteristics of different regions, interpret the evolutionary relationships between categorized groups, likelihood of performing multiple com...

The neutral theory of molecular evolution states that the accumulation of neutral mutations in the genome is fundamental for evolution to occur. The genetic representation of gene expression programming, an artificial genotype/phenotype system, not only allows the existence of non-coding regions in the genome where neutral mutations can accumulate but also allows the controlled manipulation of ...

Genetic programming (GP) is extensively used for structure and parameter tuning of control systems. This paper describes an application of genetic programming for Pareto biobjective design of polynomial based controllers for some common time-delay systems. In this way, a multi-objective uniform-diversity genetic programming proposed and used for polynomial controller evolution. The ε-eliminatio...

integrated production-distribution planning (pdp) is one of the most important approaches in supply chain networks. we consider a supply chain network (scn) to consist of multi suppliers, plants, distribution centers (dcs), and retailers. a bi-objective mixed integer linear programming model for integrating production-distribution designed here aim to simultaneously minimize total net costs in ...

hub covering problem (hlp) is a very popular areas of research for its wide ranges of applications in different service or manufacturing industries. this paper considers a bi-objective hub covering location problem with congestion. the objectives minimize the total transportation cost and the total waiting time for all hobs, respectively. the resulted multi-objective decision-making problem is ...

Embedded Cartesian Genetic Programming (ECGP) is an extension of Cartesian Genetic Programming (CGP) that can automatically acquire, evolve and re-use partial solutions in the form of modules. In this paper, we introduce for the first time a new multi-chromosome approach to CGP and ECGP that allows difficult problems with multiple outputs to be broken down into many smaller, simpler problems wi...
