Improved Differential Evolution Algorithm to Solve the Advertising Method Selection Problem

open access: yesJournal of Open Innovation: Technology, Market and Complexity, 2019
This article proposes a methodology to resolve the advertising method selection problem (AdSP). The use of different advertising methods for the same product can generate different responses in terms of the product’s sales volume. Companies selling

Genetic Algorithm with Optimal Recombination for the Asymmetric Travelling Salesman Problem

open access: yes, 2017
We propose a new genetic algorithm with optimal recombination for the asymmetric instances of travelling salesman problem. The algorithm incorporates several new features that contribute to its effectiveness: (i) Optimal recombination problem is solved ...

Fast and Readable Layered Network Visualizations Using Large Neighborhood Search

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics
Layered network visualizations assign each node to one of several parallel axes. They can convey sequence or flow data, hierarchies, or multiple data classes, but edge crossings and long edges often impair readability. Layout algorithms can reduce edge crossings and shorten edges using quick heuristics or optimal methods that prioritize human ...

Local Search Techniques for Constrained Portfolio Selection Problems

open access: yes, 2001
We consider the problem of selecting a portfolio of assets that provides the investor a suitable balance of expected return and risk. With respect to the seminal mean-variance model of Markowitz, we consider additional constraints on the cardinality of ...

Efficient methods for scheduling make-to-order assemblies under resource, assembly area, and part availability constraints

open access: yes, 2016
We consider the problem of scheduling multiple, large-scale, make-to-order assemblies under resource, assembly area, and part availability constraints. Such problems typically occur in the assembly of high volume, discrete make-to-order products.

Large Neighborhood Search for Variants of TSP

open access: yes, 2007
To solve problems with Local Search procedures, neighborhoods have to be defined. During the resolution, a solution is typically replaced by the best solution found in its neighborhood. A question concerns the size of the neighborhood. If a small neighborhood can be explored in polynomial time, a large neighborhood search may bring a faster convergence

A Lin-Kernighan Heuristic for Single Row Facility Layout [PDF]

open access: yes
The single row facility layout problem (SRFLP) is the problem of arranging facilities with given lengths on a line, while minimizing the weighted sum of the distances between all pairs of facilities. The problem is known to be NP-hard.
