This paper describes the implementation of Single-objective Genetic Algorithm (SOGA) and Multi-objectives Genetic Algorithm (MOGA) to optimize the pipelined Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) coefficient in order to improve the performance of Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) and also the Switching Activity (SA). The SA and SNR are optimized separately in a Radix-4 Single Path Delay Feedback (R4SDF) pipeli...

abstract: this paper considers the problem of scheduling n jobs on m unrelated parallel machines with sequence-dependent setup times. to better comply with industrial situations, jobs have varying due dates and ready times and there are some precedence relations between them. furthermore sequence-dependent setup times and anticipatory setups are included in the proposed model. the objective is ...

this paper studies the modeling and optimization of energy use and greenhouse gas emissions of eggplant production using artificial neural network and multi-objective genetic algorithm in guilan province of iran. results showed that the highest share of energy consumption belongs to diesel fuel (49.24%); followed by nitrogen (33.30%). the results indicated that a total energy input of 13910.67 ...

The applicably of multi-objective optimization to ellipsometric data analysis is presented and a method to handle complex ellipsometric problems such as multi sample or multi angle analysis using multi-objective optimization is described. The performance of a multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) is tested against a single objective common genetic algorithm (CGA). The procedure is applied to...

Damage detection has been focused by researchers because of its importance in engineering practices. Therefore, different approaches have been presented to detect damage location in structures. However, the higher the accuracy of methods is required the more complex deliberations. Based on the conventional studies, it was observed that the damage locations and its size are associated with dynam...

Multi-objective optimization (MO) has been an active area of research in the last two decades. In multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA), the quality of newly generated offspring of the population will directly affect the performance of finding the Pareto optimum. In this paper, an improved MOGA, named SMGA, is proposed for solving multi-objective optimization problems. To increase efficiency...

in financial matters, portfolio can be interpreted as a combination or a series of investments hold by an institution or a person. portfolio optimization is one of the most important concerns of investors for maximizing the portfolio in financial markets. the formation of portfolio is a vital and critical decision for the companies.  in fact, the selection of portfolio is to specify the capital...

In this paper, we show how cellular structures can be combined with a multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) for improving its search ability to find Pareto-optimal solutions of multi-objective optimization problems. We propose an assignment method of a different search direction to each cell for implementing a cellular MOGA. In our cellular MOGA, every individual in each population exists in...

Genetic Algorithm (GA) mimics natural evolutionary process. Since dying of an organism is important part of natural evolutionary process, GA should have some mechanism for dying of solutions just like GA have crossover operator for birth of solutions. In nature, occurrence of event of dying of an organism has some reasons like aging, disease, malnutrition and so on. In this work we propose thre...

a novel approach to determine optimal sampling locations under parameter uncertainty in a water distribution system (wds) for the purpose of its hydraulic model calibration is presented. the problem is formulated as a multi-objective optimisation problem under calibration parameter uncertainty. the objectives are to maximise the calibrated model accuracy and to minimise the number of sampling d...
