PhD Project in Computer Science / Computational Intelligence, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne [Australia]

PhD Project in Computer Science/Computational Intelligence (Fitness/Search Space Characterisation with a View to Choosing Problem Solvers and their Parameter Settings)@Swinburne University of Technology (Melbourne, Australia) Project title: Fitness Space Characterisation for Stochastic Combinatorial Optimisation Research topic: Stochastic optimisation methods such as Genetic Algorithms and other evolutionary approaches are used to find approximate solutions to combinatorial problems when the problems are too complex to be solved deterministically through mathematical approaches. So far, evolutionary algorithms have been applied to individual combinatorial problems such as bin packing and resource allocation. Certain algorithm and parameter variations are regularly reported to improve results obtained from a particular problem. This project aims at investigating ways – stochastic, mathematical or statistical – of probing the fitness space for clues about the characteristics of...
