Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Randomized Population Constructive Heuristic for the Team Orienteering ProblemManal ZettamThe NP-hard (complete) team orienteering problem is a particular vehicle routing problem with the aim of maximizing the profits gained from visiting control points without exceeding a travel cost limit. The team orienteering problem has a number of applications in several fields such as athlete recruiting, technician routing and tourist trip. Therefore, solving optimally the team orienteering problem would play … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 9 · 17 Jun 2017 · 8,285 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNatural Reforestation Optimization (NRO): A Novel Optimization Algorithm Inspired by the Reforestation ProcessFernando L. Rodríguez-Gallegos, César A. Rodríguez-Gallegos, Andrés A. Rodríguez-Gallegos, Carlos D. Rodríguez-GallegosThis paper proposes a new meta-heuristic-based optimization algorithm for single-objective problems. The algorithm is called Natural Reforestation Optimization (NRO) and is inspired by the process in which natural reforestation takes place. The features of this algorithm (such as the distribution of the initial population, the exploration and exploitation mechanisms, the interactions between the particles, the stopping criteria, among others) are … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 8 · 2 Sep 2020 · 6,655 accessesView PDF Cite
