Multipopulation Genetic Algorithms with Different Interaction Structures to Solve Flexible Job-Shop Scheduling Problems: A Network Science Perspective

Populations of multipopulation genetic algorithms (MPGAs) parallely evolve with some interaction mechanisms. Previous studies have shown that the interaction structures can impact on the performance of MPGAs to some extent. This paper introduces the concept of complex networks such as ring-shaped ne...
