Abstract—We describe the “edge-window-decoder” strategy. (EWD), a decoder-based redundant encoding strategy for tree- based combinatorial problems�...

The genetic algorithm developed uses the edge window decoder encoding technique for network representation and building up spanning trees, as well as efficient�...

The Edge-sets structure has been proved to be efficient in finding spanning trees in graphs [25, 26]. In this paper, solutions are presented by edge-sets�...

This paper forms the generic multi-objective spanning tree problem and considers edge-cost and diameter as the two objectives, and uses a multiobjective�...

And we show that EA using Edge Window Decoder (EWD) has high locality and high heritability but nevertheless it preserves high diversity for generations.

The edge-set encoding is a direct tree representation which directly represents trees as sets of edges. There are two variants of the edge-set encoding: the�...
