Optimizing Construction Project Labor Utilization Using Differential Evolution: A Comparative Study of Mutation Strategies

Algorithm 3

The DeLOCP.

Begin Algorithm

Define PopulationSize, MuationScaleFactor, CrossoverProbablility

Initialize Population of vectors

Calculate Fitness of each vector using Algorithm 2

Identify BestSolution

For  :  // = maximum number of generations

   For  : PopulationSize

      Perform Mutation using one strategy among (3), (4), (5), (6), (7), (8), and (9)

      Perform Crossover using (10)

      Perform Selection using (11)

      Update BestSolution

   End For

End For

Return BestSolution
