Flatness is one fundamental element of geometric forms, and the flatness evaluation is particularly important for ensuring the quality of industrial products. This paper presents a new flatness evaluation in the view of the minimum zone evaluation - rotation method based on genetic algorithm. This method determines the minimum zone through rotating measurement points in three dimensions coordinate. The points are firstly rotated about coordinate axes. Then they are projected in one axis, and the smallest projection length is the flatness value. The rotation angles are optimized by genetic algorithm to improve search efficiency. An exponential fitness function and the rotation angles range is designed on the basis of flatness characteristics. An adaptive mode of crossover and mutation probability is used to avoid local optimum. The results show this method can search the minimum zone and converge rapidly.

In this paper, we propose a hybrid algorithm combining two different metaheuristic methods, “Genetic Algorithms (GA)” and “Sperm Swarm Optimization (SSO)”, for the global optimization of multimodal benchmarks functions. The proposed Hybrid Genetic Algorithm and Sperm Swarm Optimization (HGASSO) operates based on incorporates concepts from GA and SSO in which generates individuals in a new iteration not only by crossover and mutation operations as proposed in GA, but also by techniques of local search of SSO. The main idea behind this hybridization is to reduce the probability of trapping in local optimum of multi modal problem. Our algorithm is compared against GA, and SSO metaheuristic optimization algorithms. The experimental results using a suite of multimodal benchmarks functions taken from the literature have evinced the superiority of the proposed HGASSO approach over the other approaches in terms of quality of results and convergence rates in which obtained good results in solving the multimodal benchmarks functions that include cosine, sine, and exponent in their formulation.

Succession planning is a subset of talent management that deals with multi-criteria and uncertainties which are quite complicated, ambiguous, fuzzy and troublesome. Besides that, the successor selection involves the process of searching the best candidate for a successor for an optimal selection decision. In an academic scenario, the quality of academic staff contributes to achieving goals and improving the performance of the university at the international level. The process of selecting appropriate academic staff requires good criteria in decision-making. The best candidate's position and criteria for the selection of academic staff is the responsibility of the Human Resource Management (HRM) to select the most suitable candidate for the required position. The various criteria that are involved in selecting academic staff includes research publication, teaching skills, personality, reputation and financial performance. Previously, most studies on multi-criteria decision-making adopt Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process (FAHP). However, this method is more complex because it involved many steps and formula and may not produce the optimum results. Therefore, Genetic Algorithm (GA) is proposed in this research to address this problem in which a fitness function for the successor selection is based on the highest fitness value of each chromosome.

This paper proposes a novel method to generate strategic team AI pathfinding plans for computer games and simulations using probabilistic pathfinding. This method is inspired by genetic algorithms (Russell and Norvig, 2002), in that, a fitness function is used to test the quality of the path plans. The method generates high-quality path plans by eliminating the low-quality ones. The path plans are generated by probabilistic pathfinding, and the elimination is done by a fitness test of the path plans. This path plan generation method has the ability to generate variation or different high-quality paths, which is desired for games to increase replay values. This work is an extension of our earlier work on team AI: probabilistic pathfinding (John et al., 2006). We explore ways to combine probabilistic pathfinding and genetic algorithm to create a new method to generate strategic team AI pathfinding plans.

One of the discussed topics in scheduling problems is Dynamic Flexible Job Shop with Parallel Machines (FDJSPM). Surveys show that this problem because of its concave and nonlinear nature usually has several local optimums. Some of the scheduling problems researchers think that genetic algorithms (GA) are appropriate approach to solve optimization problems of this kind. But researches show that one of the disadvantages of classical genetic algorithms is premature convergence and the probability of trap into the local optimum. Considering these facts, in present research, represented a developed genetic algorithm that its controlling parameters change during algorithm implementation and optimization process. This approach decreases the probability of premature convergence and trap into the local optimum. The several experiments were done show that the priority of proposed procedure of solving in field of the quality of obtained solution and convergence speed toward other present procedure.

The research of path planning method based on genetic algorithm (GA) for the mobile robot has received much attention in recent years. GA, as one evolutionary computation model, mimics the process of natural evolution and genetics. The quality of the initial population plays an essential role in improving the performance of GA. However, when GA based on a random initialization method is applied to path planning problems, it will lead to the emergence of infeasible solutions and reduce the performance of the algorithm. A novel GA with a hybrid initialization method, termed NGA, is proposed to solve this problem in this paper. In the initial population, NGA first randomly selects three free grids as intermediate nodes. Then, a part of the population uses a random initialization method to obtain the complete path. The other part of the population obtains the complete path using a greedy-related method. Finally, according to the actual situation, the redundant nodes or duplicate paths in the path are deleted to avoid the redundant paths. In addition, the deletion operation and the reverse operation are also introduced to the NGA iteration process to prevent the algorithm from falling into the local optimum. Simulation experiments are carried out with other algorithms to verify the effectiveness of the NGA. Simulation results show that NGA is superior to other algorithms in convergence accuracy, optimization ability, and success rate. Besides, NGA can generate the optimal feasible paths in complex environments.

This paper concerns an improved adaptive genetic algorithm, and the method is applied to the Maximum Entropy Template Selection Algorithm image registration. This method includes adjusting the probability of crossover and mutation in the evolutionary process. The method can overcome the disadvantage of traditional genetic algorithm that is easy to get into a local optimum answer. Results show our method is insensitive to the ordering, rotation and scale of the input images so it can be used in image stitching and retrieval of images & videos.

The main problems for Genetic Algorithm (GA) to deal with the complex layout design of satellite module lie in easily trapping into local optimality and large amount of consuming time. To solve these problems, the Bee Evolutionary Genetic Algorithm (BEGA) and the adaptive genetic algorithm (AGA) are introduced. The crossover operation of BEGA algorithm effectively reinforces the information exploitation of the genetic algorithm, and introducing random individuals in BEGA enhance the exploration capability and avoid the premature convergence of BEGA. These two features enable to accelerate the evolution of the algorithm and maintain excellent solutions. At the same time, AGA is adopted to improve the crossover and mutation probability, which enhances the escaping capability from local optimal solution. Finally, satellite module layout design based on Adaptive Bee Evolutionary Genetic Algorithm (ABEGA) is proposed. Numerical experiments of the satellite module layout optimization show that: ABEGA outperforms SGA and AGA in terms of the overall layout scheme, enveloping circle radius, the moment of inertia and success rate.

This chapter proposes the establishment of OntoQuery in an m-commerce agent framework. OntoQuery represents a new query formation approach that combines the usage of ontology and keywords. This approach takes advantage of the tree pathway structure in ontology to form queries visually and efficiently. Also, it uses keywords to complete the query formation process more efficiently. Present query optimization techniques like relevance feedback use expensive iterations. The proposed information retrieval scheme focuses on using genetic algorithms to improve computational effectiveness. Mutations are done on queries formed in the earlier part by replacing terms with synonyms. Query optimization techniques used include query restructuring by logical terms and numerical constraints replacement. Also, the fitness function of the genetic algorithm is defined by three elements, number of documents retrieved, quality of documents, and correlation of queries. The number and quality of documents retrieved give the basic strength of a mutated query.
