The method was based on the Lagrangian relaxation and the surrogate constraint technique for finding feasible solutions. The Lagrangian relaxations were solved with the maximum-flow algorithm and the Lagrangian bounds was determined with the outer approximation method. Computational results show the efficiency of the proposed method for multi-dimensional quadratic 0-1 knapsack problems.展开更多

Multi-objective problems with non-convex and discrete Pareto front can take enormous computation time to converge to the true Pareto front. Hence, the classical multi-objective genetic algorithms (MOGAs) (i.e., non- Parallel MOGAs) may fail to solve such intractable problem in a reasonable amount of time. The proposed hybrid model will combine the best attribute of island and Jakobovic master slave models. We conduct an extensive experimental study in a multi-core system by varying the different size of processors and the result is compared with basic parallel model i.e., master-slave model which is used to parallelize NSGA-II. The experimental results confirm that the hybrid model is showing a clear edge over master-slave model in terms of processing time and approximation to the true Pareto front.展开更多

In the 0/1 MKP, a set of items is given, each with a size and value, which has to be placed into a knapsack that has a certain number of dimensions having each a limited capacity. The goal is to find a subset of items leading to the maximum total profit while respecting the capacity constraints. Even though the 0/1 MKP is well studied in the literature, we can just find a little number of recent review papers on this problem. Furthermore, the existing reviews focus particularly on some specific issues. This paper aims to give a general and comprehensive survey of the considered problem so that it can be useful for both researchers and practitioners. Indeed, we first describe the 0/1 MKP and its relevant variants. Then, we present the detailed models of some important real-world applications of this problem. Moreover, an important collection of recently published heuristics and metaheuristics is categorized and briefly reviewed. These approaches are then quantitatively compared through some indicative statistics. Finally, some synthetic remarks and research directions are highlighted in the conclusion.展开更多

AIBWPA is applied to 10 classic 0-1 knapsack problems and compared with BWPA, DPSO, which proves that AIBWPA has higher optimization accuracy and better computational robustness. AIBWPA makes the parameters simple, protects the population diversity and enhances the global convergence.展开更多
