Hybrid Genetic Algorithm for the Maximum Clique Problem Combining Sharing and Migration

چکیده
The Maximum Clique Problem (MCP) has been studied for decades and is well known in graph theory as a problem that is difficult as it as it is known to be NP-complete. The MCP has a vast domain of application such as finance, biochemistry, bioinformatics, and many more. Many niching methods have been successfully applied in Genetic Algorithms (GA) to diversify the population and avoid getting trapped within local optima. In this paper, we propose an approach using the Sharing method and a Hybrid Genetic Algorithm (HGA) for the maximum clique problem. We also propose a non-evolutionary approach using a migration mechanism to boost the current HGA.

A HYBRID GENETIC ALGORITHM FOR A BI-OBJECTIVE SCHEDULING PROBLEM IN A FLEXIBLE MANUFACTURING CELL
This paper considers a bi-objective scheduling problem in a flexible manufacturing cell (FMC) which minimizes the maximum completion time (i.e., makespan) and maximum tardiness simultaneously. A new mathematical model is considered to reflect all aspect of the manufacturing cell. This type of scheduling problem is known to be NP-hard. To cope with the complexity of such a hard problem, a genet...
متن کاملA hybrid algorithm for the path center problem
Let a graph G = (V;E) be given. In the path center problem we want to find a path P in G such that the maximum weighted distance of P to every vertex in V is minimized. In this paper a genetic algorithm and ahybrid of genetic and ant colony algorithms are presented for the path center problem. Some test problems are examined to compare the algorithms. The results show that for almost all exampl...

متن کاملSolving the Ride-Sharing Problem with Non-Homogeneous Vehicles by Using an Improved Genetic Algorithm with Innovative Mutation Operators and Local Search Methods
An increase in the number of vehicles in cities leads to several problems, including air pollution, noise pollution, and congestion. To overcome these problems, we need to use new urban management methods, such as using intelligent transportation systems like ride-sharing systems. The purpose of this study is to create and implement an improved genetic algorithms model for ride-sharing with non...
متن کاملA Tunned-parameter Hybrid Algorithm for Dynamic Facility Layout Problem with Budget Constraint using GA and SAA
A facility layout problem is concerned with determining the best position of departments, cells, or machines on the plant. An efficient layout contributes to the overall efficiency of operations. It’s been proved that, when system characteristics change, it can cause a significant increase in material handling cost. Consequently, the efficiency of the current layout decreases or is lost and it ...
