Abstract: In this paper we compare the effects of using various stochastic operators with the non-unicost set-covering problem. Four different crossover operators are compared to a repair heuristic which consists in transforming infeasible strings into feasible ones. These stochastic operators are incorporated in GENEsYs, the genetic algorithm we apply to problem instances of the set-covering problem we draw from well known test problems. GENEsYs uses a simple fitness function that has a graded penalty... (Update)
