It is a fuzzy controller that it is the most used method in the control of non-linear system. The most important part in the fuzzy controller is a design of fuzzy rules. Many algorithm that design fuzzy rules have proposed. And attention to the evolutionary computation is increasing in the recent days. Among them, the co-evolutionary algorithm is used in the design of optimal fuzzy rule. This paper takes advantage of a schema co-evolutionary algorithm. In order to verify the efficiency of the schema co-evolutionary algorithm, a fuzzy controller for the mobile robot control is designed by the schema co-evolutionary algorithm and it is compared with other parasitic co-evolutionary algorithm such as a virus-evolutionary genetic algorithm and a co-evolutionary method of Handa.

The container packing problem Is one of the traditional optimization problems, which is very related to the knapsack problem and the bin packing problem. In this paper, we deal with the quadratic multiple container picking problem (QMCPP) and it Is known as a NP-hard problem. Thus, It seems to be natural to use a heuristic approach such as evolutionary algorithms for solving the QMCPP. Until now, only a few researchers have studied on this problem and some evolutionary algorithms have been proposed. This paper introduces a new efficient evolutionary algorithm for the QMCPP. The proposed algorithm is devised by improving the original network random key method, which is employed as an encoding method in evolutionary algorithms. And we also propose local search algorithms and incorporate them with the proposed evolutionary algorithm. Finally we compare the proposed algorithm with the previous algorithms and show the proposed algorithm finds the new best results in most of the benchmark instances.

Nowadays, the robot with various and complex functions is required. previous algorithms, however, cannot satisfy the requirement. In order to solve these problems, we introduce the 2-Layer Fuzzy Controller, which has a small number of fuzzy rules corresponding to various inputs and outputs. Also, it controls robustly and effectively an object. The main problem in the fuzzy controller is how to design the fuzzy rule. This paper designs the optimal 2-layer fuzzy controller using the Schema Co-Evolutionary Algorithm. The schema co-evolutionary algorithm can find more rapidly and excellently than simple genetic algorithm does.

The purpose of this study is to present a method for determining the k most vital arcs in shortest path problem using an evolutionary algorithm. The problem of finding the k most vital arcs in shortest path problem is to find a set of k arcs whose simultaneous removal from the network causes the greatest increase in the total length of shortest path. Generally, the problem determining the k most vital arcs in shortest path problem has known as NP-hard. Therefore, in order to deal with the problem of real world the heuristic algorithm is needed. In this study we propose to the method of finding the k most vital arcs in shortest path problem using an evolutionary algorithm which known as the most efficient algorithm among heuristics. The method presented in this study is developed using the library of the evolutionary algorithm framework and then the performance of algorithm is analyzed through the computer experiment.

Nowadays, versatile robots are developed around the world. Novel algorithms are needed for controlling such robots. A 2-Layer fuzzy controller can deal with many inputs as well as many outputs, and its overall structure is much simpler than that of a general fuzzy controller. The main problem encountered in fuzzy control is the design of the fuzzy controller. In this paper, the fuzzy controller is designed by the schema co-evolutionary algorithm. This algorithm can quickly and easily find a global solution. Therefore, the schema co-evolutionary algorithm is used to design a 2-layer fuzzy controller in this study. We apply it to a mobile robot and verify the efficacy of the 2-layer fuzzy controller and the schema co-evolutionary algorithm through the experiments.

Recently, several promising multiobjective evolutionary algorithm such as SPEA. NSGA-II, PESA, and SPEA2 have been developed. In this paper, we also propose a new multiobjective evolutionary algorithm that compares to them. In the algorithm proposed in this paper, we introduce a novel concept, “inherited age” and total algorithm is executed based on the inherited age concept. Also, we propose a new sharing algorithm, called objective classication sharing algorithm(OCSA) that can preserve the diversity of the population. We will show the superior performance of the proposed algorithm by comparing the proposed algorithm with other promising algorithms for the test functions.

In searching for solutions to multiobjective optimization problem, we find that there is no single optimal solution but rather a set of solutions known as 'Pareto optimal set'. To find approximation of ideal pareto optimal set, search capability of diverse individuals at population space can determine the performance of evolutionary algorithms. This paper propose the method to maintain population diversify and to find non-dominated alternatives in Game model based Co-Evolutionary Algorithm.

Researchers have utilized artificial evolution techniques and learning techniques for studying the interactions between learning and evolution. Adaptation in dynamic environments gains a significant advantage by combining evolution and learning. We propose an on-line, realtime evolutionary learning mechanism to determine the structure and the synaptic weights of a neural network controller for mobile robot navigations. We support our method, based on (1+1) evolutionary strategy which produces changes during the lifetime of an individual to increase the adaptability of the individual itself, with a set of experiments on evolutionary neural controller for physical robots behaviors. We investigate the effects of learning in evolutionary process by comparing the performance of the proposed realtime evolutionary learning method with that of evolutionary method only. Also, we investigate an interactive evolutionary algorithm to overcome the difficulties in evaluating complicated tasks.
