Title
Population Training Heuristics
Abstract
This work describes a new way of employing problem-specific heuristics to improve evolutionary algorithms: the Population Training Heuristic (PTH). The PTH employs heuristics in fitness definition, guid- ing the population to settle down in search areas where the individuals can not be improved by such heuristics. Some new theoretical improve- ments not present in early algorithms are now introduced. An application for pattern sequencing problems is examined with new improved compu- tational results. The method is also compared against other approaches, using benchmark instances taken from the literature.
