The Niched Pareto Genetic Algorithm 2 Applied to the Design of Groundwater Remediation Systems
TLDR
We present an evolutionary approach to a difficult, multiobjective problem in groundwater quality management: how to pump-and-treat contaminated groundwater to remove the most contaminant at the least cost. Expand
