Abstract: Fitness landscape analysis (FLA) is quite important in evolutionary computation. In this article, we propose a novel FLA method, the nearest-better network (NBN), which uses the ...

Abstract: Robust multiobjective optimization problems (RMOPs) widely exist in real-world applications, which introduce a variety of uncertainty in optimization models. While some evolutionary ...

Optimization problems often involve situations in which the user's goal is to minimize and/or maximize not a single objective function, but several, usually conflicting, functions simultaneously. Such ...

We walk through an optimization problem step by step, clearly explaining how to identify variables, set up the correct function, apply derivatives, and find maximum or minimum values. Each step is ...

The Trump administration is giving farmers a $12 billion bailout. Critics say the money won't be enough, won't be distributed fairly and won't address long-term problems.
