this paper uses integrated data envelopment analysis (dea) models to rank all extreme and non-extreme efficient decision making units (dmus) and then applies integrated dea ranking method as a criterion to modify genetic algorithm (ga) for finding pareto optimal solutions of a multi objective programming (mop) problem. the researchers have used ranking method as a shortcut way to modify ga to d...

This paper proposes the multi-objective variant of recently-introduced fitness dependent optimizer (FDO). The algorithm is called a (MOFDO) and equipped with all five types knowledge (situational, normative, topographical, domain, historical knowledge) as in FDO. MOFDO tested on two standard benchmarks for performance-proof purpose: classical ZDT test functions, which widespread suite that take...

During the past few decades, multi-agent optimization problems have drawn increased attention from research community. When multiple objective functions are present among agents, many works optimize sum of these functions. However, this formulation implies a decision regarding relative importance each objective: optimizing is special case multi-objective problem in which all objectives prioriti...

Real world problems often present multiple, frequently conflicting, objectives. The research for optimal solutions of multi-objective problems can be achieved through means of genetic algorithms, which are inspired by the natural process of evolution: an initial population of solutions is randomly generated, then pairs of solutions are selected and combined in order to create new solutions slig...

Abstract This paper introduces a multi-objective variant of the marine predators algorithm (MPA) called improved (MOIMPA), which incorporates concepts from Quantum theory. By leveraging theory, MOIMPA aims to enhance MPA’s ability balance between exploration and exploitation find optimal solutions. The utilizes concept inspired by Schrödinger wave function determine position particles in search...

this paper proposes the exchange market algorithm (ema) to solve the combined economic and emission dispatch (ceed) problems in thermal power plants. the ema is a new, robust and efficient algorithm to exploit the global optimum point in optimization problems. existence of two seeking operators in ema provides a high ability in exploiting global optimum point. in order to show the capabilities ...

this paper aims to investigate the integrated production/distribution and inventory planning for perishable products with fixed life time in the constant condition of storage throughout a two-echelon supply chain by integrating producers and distributors. this problem arises from real environment in which multi-plant with multi-function lines produce multi-perishable products with fixed life ti...
