Firefly Algorithm, Stochastic Test Functions and Design Optimisation [PDF]
Modern optimisation algorithms are often metaheuristic, and they are very promising in solving NP-hard optimization problems. In this paper, we show how to use the recently developed Firefly Algorithm to solve nonlinear design problems.

Discovered Policy Optimisation [PDF]
Tremendous progress has been made in reinforcement learning (RL) over the past decade. Most of these advancements came through the continual development of new algorithms, which were designed using a combination of mathematical derivations, intuitions ...

Evolutionary Dynamic Multi-objective Optimisation: A Survey
Evolutionary dynamic multi-objective optimisation (EDMO) is a relatively young but rapidly growing area of investigation. EDMO employs evolutionary approaches to handle multi-objective optimisation problems that have time-varying changes in objective ...

Set-Based Particle Swarm Optimisation: A Review
The set-based particle swarm optimisation algorithm is a swarm-based meta-heuristic that has gained popularity in recent years. In contrast to the original particle swarm optimisation algorithm, the set-based particle swarm optimisation algorithm is used

Multi-objective robust optimisation model for MDVRPLS in refined oil distribution
At depots with refined oil shortage, arranging a reasonable distribution scheme with limited supply affects operation costs, demand satisfaction rate of gasoline stations (hereafter, ‘station satisfaction’), and overtime penalty. This study considers the

Engineering optimisation by cuckoo search [PDF]
A new metaheuristic optimisation algorithm, called Cuckoo Search (CS), was developed recently by Yang and Deb (2009). This paper presents a more extensive comparison study using some standard test functions and newly designed stochastic test functions ...

Long-term ex situ normothermic perfusion of human split livers for more than 1 week
Current machine perfusion technology permits livers to be preserved ex situ for short periods to assess viability prior to transplant. Long-term normothermic perfusion of livers is an emerging field with tremendous potential for the assessment, recovery,
