Facility-location problems have several applications, such as telecommunications, industrial transportation and distribution. One of the most well-known facility-location problems is the p-median problem. This work addresses an application of the cap...

Estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs) are a class of evolutionary algorithms that use statistical information to guide the exploration of the search space. A prominent problem in EDAs is the loss of variability as the search progresses. This o... Read More about A study of the effectiveness of detailed balance in avoiding convergence in PBIL.
