Lin-Kernighan Heuristic Adaptations for the Generalized Traveling Salesman Problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The Lin-Kernighan heuristic is known to be one of the most successful heuristics for the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). It has also proven its efficiency in application to some other problems.

Production routing decisions in a two‐echelon supply chain with multiple delivery modes

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract We study an original two‐echelon production routing problem with multiple delivery modes (2E‐PRP‐MDM). In the first echelon, the primary production facility is tasked with satisfying the demands of two distinct entities: a set of warehouses and a set of customers through direct shipments. In the second echelon, warehouses become delivery hubs,

A matheuristic for the traveling salesman problem with positional consistency constraints

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract We propose a matheuristic for the traveling salesman problem with positional consistency constraints, where we seek to generate a set of routes with minimum total cost, in which the nodes visited in more than one route (consistent nodes) must occupy the same relative position in all routes.

Addressing Expensive Multi-objective Games with Postponed Preference Articulation via Memetic Co-evolution

open access: yes, 2017
This paper presents algorithmic and empirical contributions demonstrating that the convergence characteristics of a co-evolutionary approach to tackle Multi-Objective Games (MOGs) with postponed preference articulation can often be hampered due to the ...

A unified formulation for home healthcare routing and scheduling problems

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Home Healthcare is an essential component of healthcare systems, where caregivers visit patients' homes to deliver services. While presenting advantages with respect to institutional care, such as being cost‐effective and alleviating family burdens, it presents challenges in scheduling and routing caregivers efficiently.

Memetic Strategy of Particle Swarm Optimization for One-Dimensional Magnetotelluric Inversions

open access: yesMathematics, 2021
The heuristic algorithm represented by particle swarm optimization (PSO) is an effective tool for addressing serious nonlinearity in one-dimensional magnetotelluric (MT) inversions. PSO has the shortcomings of insufficient population diversity and a lack

Meta-Lamarckian Learning in Memetic Algorithms [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation, 2004
Over the last decade, memetic algorithms (MAs) have relied on the use of a variety of different methods as the local improvement procedure. Some recent studies on the choice of local search method employed have shown that this choice significantly affects the efficiency of problem searches.

Memetic Algorithms for Spatial Partitioning Problems

open access: yesACM Transactions on Spatial Algorithms and Systems, 2023
Spatial optimization problems (SOPs) are characterized by spatial relationships governing the decision variables, objectives, and/or constraint functions. In this article, we focus on a specific type of SOP called spatial partitioning, which is a combinatorial problem due to the presence of discrete spatial units.
