Genetic algorithms for multiple-choice problems (1999)
Thesis
Aickelin, U. Genetic algorithms for multiple-choice problems. (Thesis). University of Wales Swansea. Retrieved from https://nottingham-repository.worktribe.com/output/1163583

This thesis investigates the use of problem-specific knowledge to enhance a genetic algorithm approach to multiple-choice optimisation problems. It shows that such information can significantly enhance performance, but that the choice of information... Read More about Genetic algorithms for multiple-choice problems.
