[chapter]
2005
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
This approach had allowed us to make an study of the balance of diversification (exploration) and intensification (exploitation) in Genetic Algorithms and Estimation of Distribution Algorithms. ...
The use of parallel EDAs in a island model [18] is an of this. The hybrid algorithm GA-EDA, can be classified as cooperative search in Blum and Roli's taxonomy. ...
Besides, diversification and intensification of both GA and EDA algorithms have been analyzed. ...

Guidelines for developing effective Estimation of Distribution Algorithms in solving single machine scheduling problems
2010
Expert systems with applications
These guidelines aim at balancing intensification and diversification in EDAs. Most EDAs are able to maintain some important linkages among variables. ...
The major ideas are to increase the population diversity gradually and by hybridizing EDAs with other meta-heuristics. ...
The solution quality of these algorithms can be further enhanced by implementing the searching strategy of intensification using the EDAs and diversification via GAs. ...

Local search methods for the flowshop scheduling problem with flowtime minimization
2012
European Journal of Operational Research
Total flowtime minimization of a flowshop has been actively studied and many effective algorithms have been proposed in the last few years. ...
However, these improvements many times come at the cost of sophisticated algorithms. Complex methods hinder potential applications and are difficult to extend to small problem variations. ...
Diversification and intensification are two key issues in the optimization process of population-based methods. ...

R-EVO: A Reactive Evolutionary Algorithm for the Maximum Clique Problem
2011
IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation
In the framework of estimation-of-distribution algorithms (EDA), guided mutation uses a model distribution to generate the offspring by combining the local information of solutions found so far with global ...
The novel reactive and evolutionary algorithm (R-EVO) proposed in this paper starts from the same evolutionary framework but considers more complex individuals, which modify tentative solutions by local ...

Algorithms
In this work, a methodology of two phases using an automatic diversification and intensification based on memory and sensing tools is proposed. ...
Unlike memory-based search algorithms such as the tabu search, the search in simulated annealing is dependent on the choice of the initial temperature to explore the search space, which has little indications ...
In the past four decades, many applications and studies have applied Metaheuristics algorithms. tabu search (TS) [1] , simulated annealing (SA) [2] , genetic algorithms (GAs) [3] , and other plentiful ...
