This paper addresses the transportation planning that is based on genetic algorithm for determining transportation time and transportation amount of minimizing cost of distribution system. The vehicle routing of minimizing the transportation distance of vehicle is determined. A distribution system is consisted of a distribution center and many retailers. The model is assumed that the time horizon is discrete and finite, and the demand of retailers is dynamic and deterministic. Products are transported from distribution center to retailers according to transportation planning. Cost factors are the transportation cost and the inventory cost, which transportation cost is proportional to transportation distance of vehicle when products are transported from distribution center to retailers, and inventory cost is proportional to inventory amounts of retailers. Transportation time to retailers is represented as a genetic string. The encoding of the solutions into binary strings is presented, as well as the genetic operators used by the algorithm. A mathematical model is developed. Genetic algorithm procedure is suggested, and a illustrative example is shown to explain the procedure.

This paper propose a new hybrid genetic algorithm for auto-tunig auzzy controller improving the performance. In general, fuzzy controller used pre-determine d moderate membership functions, fuzzy rules, and scaling factors, by trial and error. The presented algorithm estimates automatically the optimal values of membership functions, fuzzy rules, and scaling factors for fuzzy controller, using hybrid genetic algorithms. The object of the proposed algorithm is to promote search efficiency by overcoming a premature convergence of genetic algorithms. Hybrid genetic algorithm is based on genetic algorithm and modified gradient method. Simulation results verify the validity of the presented method.

Traditional genetic algorithms, though robust, are generally not the most successful optimization algorithm on only particular domian. Hybridizing a genetic algorithm with other algorithms can produce better performance than both the genetic algorithm and the other algorithms. This paper describes the application of random signal-based learning to a genetic algorithm in order to get well tuned fuzzy rules. The key of tis approach is to adjust both the width and the center of membership functions so that the tuned rule-based fuzzy controller can generate the desired performance. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified by computer simulation.

In the optimized design of an actual structure, the design variable should be selected among any certain values or corresponds to a discrete design variable that needs to handle the size of a pre-formatted part. Various algorithms have been developed for discrete design. As recently reported, the sequential algorithm with orthogonal arrays(SOA), which is a local minimum search algorithm in discrete space, has excellent local minimum search ability. It reduces the number of function evaluation using orthogonal arrays. However it only finds a local minimum and the final solution depends on the initial value. In this research, the genetic algorithm, which defines an initial population with the potential solution in a global space, is adopted in SOA. The new algorithm, sequential algorithm with orthogonal arrays and genetic algorithm(SOAGA), can find a global solution with the properties of genetic algorithm and the solution is found rapidly with the characteristics of SOA.

Heuristic optimization using hybrid algorithms have provided a robust and efficient approach for solving many optimization problems. In this paper, a new hybrid algorithm using adaptive genetic algorithm (aGA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) is proposed. The proposed hybrid algorithm is applied to solve numerical optimization functions. The results are compared with those of GA and other conventional PSOs. Finally, the proposed hybrid algorithm outperforms others.

In this paper, the multi-objective genetic algorithm is proposed for the document clustering which is important in the text mining field. The most important function in the document clustering algorithm is to group the similar documents in a corpus. So far, the k-means clustering and genetic algorithms are much in progress in this field. However, the k-means clustering depends too much on the initial centroid, the genetic algorithm has the disadvantage of coming off in the local optimal value easily according to the fitness function. In this paper, the multi-objective genetic algorithm is applied to the document clustering in order to complement these disadvantages while its accuracy is analyzed and compared to the existing algorithms. In our experimental results, the multi-objective genetic algorithm introduced in this paper shows the accuracy improvement which is superior to the k-means clustering(about 20 %) and the general genetic algorithm (about 17 %) for the document clustering.

Dynamic process planning requires not only more flexible capabilities of a CAPP system but also higher utility of the generated process plans. In order to meet the requirements, this paper develops an algorithm that can select machines for the machining operations by calculating the machine loads. The developed algorithm is based on the multi-objective genetic algorithm that gives rise to a set of optimal solutions (in general, known as the Pareto-optimal solutions). The objective is to satisfy both the minimization number of part movements and the maximization of machine utilization. The algorithm is characterized by a new and efficient method for nondominated sorting through K-means algorithm, which can speed up the running time, as well as a method of two stages for genetic operations, which can maintain a diverse set of solutions. The performance of the algorithm is evaluated by comparing with another multiple objective genetic algorithm, called NSGA-II and branch and bound algorithm.

In this study, a design approach based on genetic algorithm is proposed to solve the manufacturing cell design problem considering alternative process plans and alternative machines. The problem is formulated as a 0-1 integer programming model which considers several manufacturing parameters, such as demand and processing time of part, machine capacity, manufacturing cell size, and the number of machines in a machine cell. A genetic algorithm is used to determine process plan for each part, part family and machine cell simultaneously.

Navigation is a science of directing a mobile robot as traversing the environment. The purpose of navigation is to reach a destination without getting lost or crashing into any obstacles. In this paper, we use a genetic algorithm for navigation. Genetic algorithm searches for path in the entire, continuous free space and unifies global path planning and local path planning. It is the efficient and effective method when compared with navigators using traditional approaches.

It is a well-known problem that the adaptive control has a poor transient response. In order to improve this problem, the scheme that model-reference adaptive control (MRAC) uses the genetic algorithm (GA) in the search for parameters is proposed. Use genetic algorithm (GA) in the searching for controller's parameters set and conventional gradient method for fine tuning. And show the reduction of the oscillations in transient response comparing with the conventional MRAC.
