On the Effectiveness of Memetic Search in Population-Based Metaheuristics for the One-Dimensional Cutting Stock Problem

Although population-based metaheuristic algorithms have been widely applied to the One-Dimensional Cutting Stock Problem (1D-CSP), their performance is often limited by premature convergence and insufficient local search capability. This study presents a comparative investigation of the effect of local search on four p...
