Genetic algorithms have become increasingly important for researchers in resolving difficult problems because they can provide feasible solutions in limited time. Using genetic algorithms to solve a problem involves first defining a representation that describes the problem states. Most previous studies have adopted one-dimensional representation. Some real problems are, however, naturally suitable to two-dimensional representation. Therefore, a two-dimensional encoding representation is designed and the traditional genetic algorithm is modified to fit the representation. Particularly, appropriate two-dimensional crossover and mutation operations are proposed to generate candidate chromosomes in the next generations. A two-dimensional repairing mechanism is also developed to adjust infeasible chromosomes to feasible ones. Finally, the proposed approach is used to solve the scheduling problem of assigning aircrafts to a time table in an airline company for demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed genetic algorithm.

Navy as a marine core in the defense force is responsible for providing security for realizing stability and security of the country.  At any time there was an invasion of other countries past through sea,  TNI AL must be able to break the enemy resistance line through a sea operation to obtain the sea superiority. But this time the endurance of Striking force Unit at only 7-10 days and required replenishment at sea to maximize the presence in the theater of operations to meet a demand of the logistics: HSD, Freshwater, Lubricating Oil, foodstuffs and amonisi. For the optimal replenishment at sea required scheduling model supporting unit to get the minimum time striking force unit was on node rendezvous. Replenishment at sea scheduling model for striking force unit refers to the problems Vehicle routing problem with time windows using Genetic Algorithms. These wheelbase used is roulette for reproduction, crossover, and mutation of genes. Genetic algorithms have obtained optimum results in the shortest route provisioning scenario uses one supporting unit with a total time of 6.89 days. In scenario two supporting unit with minimal time is 4.97 days. In the scenario, the changing of the node replenishment Genetic Algorithm also get optimal time is 4.97 days with two supporting units. Research continued by changing the parameters of the population, the probability of crossover and mutation that can affect the performance of the genetic algorithm to obtain the solution. Keywords: Genetic Algorithm, Model Scheduling, Striking Force unit

<p>In the face of the problem of high complexity of two-dimensional Otsu adaptive threshold algorithm, a new fast and effective Otsu image segmentation algorithm is proposed based on genetic algorithm. This algorithm replaces the segmentation threshold of the traditional two - dimensional Otsu method by finding the threshold of two one-dimensional Otsu method, it reduces the computational complexity of the partition from O (L4) to O (L). In order to ensure the integrity of the segmented object, the algorithm introduces the concept of small dispersion in class, and the automatic optimization of parameters are achieved by genetic algorithm. Theoretical analysis and experimental results show that the algorithm is not only better than the original two-dimensional Otsu algorithm, but also it has better segmentation effect.</p>

Preparation of courses at every university is done by hand. This method has limitations that often cause collisions schedule. In lectures and lab scheduling frequent collision against the faculty member teaching schedule, collisions on the class schedule and student, college collision course with lab time, the allocation of the use of the rooms were not optimal. Heuristic method of genetic algorithm based on the mechanism of natural selection; it is a process of biological evolution. Genetic algorithms are used to obtain optimal schedule that consists of the initialization process of the population, fitness evaluation, selection, crossover, and mutation. Data used include the teaching of data, the data subjects, the room data and time data retrieved from the database of the Faculty of Computer Science, Universitas Pembangunan Panca Budi. The data in advance through the stages of the process of genetic algorithms to get optimal results The results of this study in the form of a schedule of courses has been optimized so that no error occurred and gaps.

This paper focuses on the research of multimodal transportation optimization model and algorithm, designs an intermodal shortest time path model and gives a solution to algorithm, constructs a multimodal transport network time analysis chart. By using genetic algorithms, the transportation scheme will be optimized. And based on each path’s code, the population will be evolved to obtain the optimal solution by using crossover and mutation rules.

AbstractVarty & White's application of multivariate analysis to Grim & Kulbicki's measurements on montmorillonites has been re-examined and extended. Inconsistencies between their table of scored data and derived similarity table, and some unexplained errors in the similarity table, have only a small effect on their results. Similarities calculated from Grim & Kulbicki's data, using a different similarity coefficient, lead to a two dimensional representation which separates the groups of montmorillonites more clearly. The groups can be clearly separated even in a one dimensional representation, by changing the relationship between distance and similarity.

The Resource Constrained Project Scheduling Problem (RCPSP) is a well-studied academic problem that has been shown to be well suited to optimization via Genetic Algorithms (GA). In this paper, a new method will be designed that would be able to solve RCPSP. This research area is very common in industry especially when a set of activities needs to be finished as soon as possible subject to two sets of constraints, precedence constraints and resource constraints. The presented algorithm in this paper is used to solve large scale RCPSP and improves solutions. Finally, for comparing, results are reported for the most famous classical problems that are taken from PSPLIB.

The permutation flowshop scheduling problem (PFSP) is an important issue in the manufacturing industry. The objective of this study is to minimize the total completion time of scheduling for minimum makespan. Although the hybrid genetic algorithms are popular for resolving PFSP, their local search methods were compromised by the local optimum which has poorer solutions. This study proposed a new hybrid genetic algorithm for PFSP which makes use of the extensive neighborhood search method. For evaluating the performance, results of this study were compared against other state-of-the-art hybrid genetic algorithms. The comparisons showed that the proposed algorithm outperformed the other algorithms. A significant 50% test instances achieved the known optimal solutions. The proposed algorithm is simple and easy to implement. It can be extended easily to apply to similar combinatorial optimization problems.
