The problem of Scheduling Hot Rolling Pass of Steels is very complex because it has large spaces search for solutions. The aim of this work was the Multi-Objective Optimization (MOO) of hot rolling steel sheets in a finishing train of six steps, implementing the second generation of Nondominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA-II). It was used two different crossover (AG1 y AG2) operators and t...

Controllers design problems are multi objective optimization problems as the controller must satisfy several performance measures that are often conflicting and competing with each other. In multi-objective approach a set of solutions can be generated from which the designer can select a final solution according to his requirement and need. This paper presents the design and analysis Proportion...

The crossover operator has always been regarded as the primary search operator in genetic algorithm (GA) because it exploits the available information from the population about the search space. Moreover, it is one of the components to consider for improving the behavior of the GA. To improve performance of GA multi parent crossover operators have been used. Multi parent crossover operators inv...

in some statistical process control applications, quality of a process or product can be characterized by a relationship between a response and one or more independent variables, which is typically referred to a profile. in this paper, polynomial profiles are considered to monitor processes in which there is a first order autoregressive relation between the error terms in each profile. a remedi...

Voltage stability has become an important issue in planning and operation of many power systems. Contingencies such as unexpected line outages in a stressed system may often result in voltage instability, which may lead to voltage collapse. This paper presents evolutionary algorithm techniques like Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA II) approach for solv...

The huge demand for real time services in wireless mesh networks (WMN) creates many challenging issues for providing quality of service (QoS). Designing of QoS routing protocols, which optimize the multiple objectives is computationally intractable. This paper proposes a new model for routing in WMN by using Modified Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm-II (MNSGA-II). The objectives which ar...

Test Case Selection (TCS) aims to select a subset of the test suite run for regression testing. The selection is typically based on past coverage and execution cost data. Researchers have successfully used multi-objective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs), such as NSGA-II its variants, solve this problem. These MOEAs use traditional crossover operators create new candidate solutions through genet...

A simple and rapid vortex assisted ionic liquid based liquid-liquid microextraction technique (VALLME) was proposed for preconcentration of trace levels of cadmium. According to this method, the extraction solvent was dispersed into the aqueous samples by the assistance of vortex agitator. Cadmium preconcentration was mediated by chelation with the 8-hydroxyquinoline (oxine) reagent and an IL, ...

Abstract This paper proposes the Self-Adaptive algorithm for Multi-Objective Constrained Optimization by using Radial Basis Function Approximations, SAMO-COBRA. automatically determines best Function-fit as surrogates objectives well constraints, to find new feasible Pareto-optimal solutions. SAMO-COBRA is compared a wide set of other state-of-the-art algorithms (IC-SA-NSGA-II, SA-NSGA-II, NSGA...
