Genetic algorithms (GAs) are vital members within the family biologically inspired algorithms. It has been proven that the performance of GAs is largely affected by the type of encoding schemes used to encode optimization problems. Binary and real encoding schemes are the most popular ones. However, it is still controversial to decide the superiority of one of them for GAs performance. Therefore,...
Data reconciliation techniques play a significant role in the industrial manufacture process, especially in the petrochemical industry. Different heuristic optimization methods have been proposed to solve this problem in previous study. In this paper, a novel real-coded quantum-inspired genetic algorithm (RLCQGA) is proposed, which has stronger search ability and quicker convergence speed, not only...
For the floorplan optimization problem, a hybrid algorithm based on simulated annealing and genetic algorithm was presented. And a kind of bistructure coding was applied, which was different from the traditional method, including the module code and variable code. The B*-Tree representation [1] was embedded in floorplan, which is an efficient, flexible representation. From the theoretical analysis,...
