“…However, researches on EA representations for complex problems (Rothlauf, 2006) show that populations with feasible solutions have very slow convergence, since the unfeasible solutions dominated the evolutionary process with the increasing of the problem size. This phenomenon has been also verified in the PSP problem (Krasnogor et al, 1999;Cotta, 2003;Gabriel & Delbem, 2009). In order to solve the problem of unfeasible solutions, Gabriel & Delbem (2009) propose a new approach using AR and a conformation matrix (C M ).…”
