An improved multi-group self-adaptive evolutionary programming Algorithm is used to get adapt attribute weight for CBR system. Firstly, this paper analyses the adaptability function based on reference case base REF and testing case base TEST, develops a novel Bi-group self-adaptive evolutionary programming that overcome the lack of conventional evolutionary programming. In this Novel algorithm, evolution of Cauchy operator and Gauss operator are parallel performed with different mutation strategies, and the Gauss operator owns the ability of self-adaptation according to the variation of adaptability function. Information is exchanged when sub-groups are reorganized. Experiment results prove the validity of self-adaptive Algorithm and CBR design system is used successfully in engine design process.

Genetic algorithm (GA) is an efficient tool for solving optimization problems by evolving solutions, as it mimics the Darwinian theory of natural evolution. The mutation operator is one of the key success factors in GA, as it is considered the exploration operator of GA. Various mutation operators exist to solve hard combinatorial problems such as the TSP. In this paper, we propose a hybrid mutation operator called "IRGIBNNM", this mutation is a combination of two existing mutations; a knowledgebased mutation, and a random-based mutation. We also improve the existing “select best mutation” strategy using the proposed mutation. We conducted several experiments on twelve benchmark Symmetric traveling salesman problem (STSP) instances. The results of our experiments show the efficiency of the proposed mutation, particularly when we use it with some other mutations.
