This paper presents a Multi-objective Evolutionary Algorithm (MOEA) to derive a set of optimal operation policies for a multipurpose reservoir system. One of the main goals in multiobjective optimization is to find a set of well distributed optimal solutions along the Pareto front. Classical optimization methods often fail in attaining a good Pareto front. To overcome the drawbacks faced by the...

In this study, a Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm (MOGA) is utilized to extract interpretable and compact fuzzy rule bases for modeling nonlinear Multi-input Multi-output (MIMO) systems. In the process of nonlinear system identification, structure selection, parameter estimation, model performance and model validation are important objectives. Furthermore, securing low-level and high-level int...

Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm (MOGA) is a new approach for association rule mining in the market-basket type databases. Finding the frequent itemsets is the most resource-consuming phase in association rule mining, and always does some extra comparisons against the whole database. This paper proposes a new algorithm, Cluster-Based MultiObjective Genetic Algorithm (CBMOGA) which optimizes th...

This paper presents a novel multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) based on the NSGA-II algorithm, which uses metamodels to determine optimal sampling locations for installing pressure loggers in a water distribution system (WDS) when parameter uncertainty is considered. The new algorithm combines the multi-objective genetic algorithm with adaptive neural networks (MOGA–ANN) to locate pressur...

Recognising the multiobjective nature of the decision process for rehabilitation of water supply distribution systems, this paper presents a comparative study of two multiobjective evolutionary methods, namely, multiobjective genetic algorithm (MOGA) and strength Pareto evolutionary algorithm (SPEA). The analyses were conducted on a simple hypothetical network for cost minimisation and minimum ...

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...

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 ...

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...
