— Over the recent years, there has been increasing research activities made on improving the efficacy of Memetic Algorithm (MA) for solving complex optimization problems. Partic...
In this paper we address a well-known facility location problem (FLP) in a sensor network environment. The problem deals with finding the optimal way to provide service to a (poss...
This paper examines a real-world application of genetic algorithms – solving the United States Navy’s Sailor Assignment Problem (SAP). The SAP is a complex assignment problem ...

Complex representation in Genetic Algorithms and pattern in real problems limits the effect of crossover to construct better pattern from sporadic building blocks. Instead of intro...
The fused Lasso penalty enforces sparsity in both the coefficients and their successive differences, which is desirable for applications with features ordered in some meaningful w...
