Repair Mechanism Sample Clauses

Repair Mechanism. ‌ [ | [ ∗ | The results for assessing the performance of the repair mechanism are shown in Figure 10 and the percentages represent the number of infeasible schedules where feasibility is restored divided by the total number of infeasible schedules. For example, the repair probability of NL10K3 is 89.8%, meaning that all generated infeasible schedules with up to 8 violations (= τn = 0.75 10 ) are passed through the repair mechanism. From all those infeasible schedules, 89.8% are returned by the repair mechanism without any violation and consequently, with a restored feasibility. A first conclusion of Figure 10 is that all generated infeasible NL4 schedules with up to 3 violations can be repaired. In fact, only schedules with 2 violations can be passed to the repair mechanism since only the norepeat constraint can be violated. Those violations always come in pairs because two teams play each other in two consecutive rounds and a violation will be reported for each team. A second conclusion is the increasing performance as the number of byes rises. Since the repair mechanism uses byes to repair schedules, more byes provide more opportunities to restore the feasibility of a schedule. For large instances the difference becomes quite extensive, with 3-RTTP instances having a repair probability of over 80% and 1-RTTP instances struggling to get to 25%. The third and last conclusion is the declining performance when the size of the competition increases. First of all, the allowed number of violations is a linear function of the competition size which results in more violations that potentially have to be repaired for larger competitions. Secondly, swapping a match between 2 rounds will cause more teams and matches to be involved for larger instances and therefore reducing the probability of restoring feasibility. Feasibility Probability 100% 80% 60% 40% 20% 0% NL4 NL6 NL8 NL10 NL12 NL14 NL16 Instance K = 1 K = 2 K = 3 Figure 10: Performance Repair Mechanism The comparison between an algorithm with and without the repair method is presented in Figure 11b. The squares and crosses represent the mean solution xxxxx after 3 runs of 30 minutes for a program with and without the repair mechanism, respectively. For all instances, except the largest one, the repair method outperforms the other. This confirms the presumption implementing a repair chain is potentially beneficial for the performance of the algorithm.
