Abstract: This paper proposes a new meta-heuristic optimization algorithm, namely Mud Ring Algorithm (MRA) that mimics the mud ring feeding behaviour of bottlenose dolphins in the Atlantic coast of ...

Many scientific problems entail labeling data items with one of a given, finite set of classes based on features of the data items. For example, oncologists classify tumors as different known cancer ...

Abstract: In this paper, a novel general class of optimality criteria is defined and proposed to solve multi-objective optimization problems by using evolutionary algorithms. These criteria, named ...

This is a modern implementation of the Hybrid Genetic Search (HGS) with Advanced Diversity Control of [1], specialized to the Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP). This algorithm has been ...
