Summary: Uniform crossover and bit-flip mutation are two popular operators used in genetic algorithms to generate new solutions in an iteration of the algorithm when the solutions are represented by binary stri
This paper deals with the problem of determination of base stock levels in a ten member serial supply chain with multiple products produced by factories using Uniform Crossover Genetic Algorithms. The complexity of the problem increases when more distribution centers and agents and multiple products ...

Genetic Algorithm (GA) is a widely used optimization technique with multitudinous applications. Improving the performance of the GA would further augment its functionality. This paper presents a Crossover Improved GA (CIGA) that emulates the motion of fireflies employed in the Firefly Algorithm (FA)...

Optimization algorithms are generally divided into two categories: gradient-based methods and gradient-free direct search methods [20,21]. The adjoint method is a gradient-based optimization method. It can calculate the sensitivity of the objective function to the boundary parameters and automatically ...

aThis paper analyzes the behavior of a selectorecombinative genetic algorithm (GA) with an ideal crossover on a class of random additively decomposable problems (rADPs). Specifically, additively decomposable problems of order k whose subsolution fitnesses are sampled from the standard uniform ...
There is a very large study investigating the parameter space of genetic algorithms and the effect of hyperparameter selection on algorithm performance [24]. These workers attempt to answer the question of whether the evolutionary component of SRGP, its crossover and mutation operations, confers any...
