Abstract

In this paper, we propose an enhanced genetic algorithm and chaos search for solving bilevel programming problem (BLPP). Enhanced genetic algorithm based on new effective selection technique. Effective selection technique enables the upper level decision maker to choose an appropriate solution in anticipation of the lower level’s decision. Firstly, the upper level problem is solved using genetic algorithm based on new effective selection technique. Secondly, another search based on chaos theory is applied on the obtained solution. The performance of the algorithm has been evaluated on different sets of test problems. Also, comparison between the proposed algorithm results and other best known solutions is introduced to show the effectiveness and efficiency of our proposed algorithm.
