Abstract

For the flexible job shop energy efficient scheduling problem (EEFJSP) , we construct a FJSP model with the optimization objectives of minimizing the maximum completion time and minimizing the total energy consumption. First, we propose an adaptive algorithm based on reinforcement learning co-evolutionary algorithm(QNSGA-II) to characterize the problem model; Second, we introduce the concepts of state space and action space and design a reward-punishment function based on the overall average fitness and population diversity to ensure the effectiveness of the algorithm in the iterative process; In order to improve the ability of the global search and local search, we propose an improved tabu search algorithm to update the population after crossover and mutation. In order to improve the ability of global search and local search, an improved taboo search algorithm is proposed to update the population after crossover and mutation. Finally, we analyze the effectiveness of the improved tabu search strategy and the Q-learning parameter adaptation strategy to verify the algorithm's effectiveness and superiority; and we compare the proposed QNSGA-II with other multi-objective optimization algorithms to verify the superiority of the algorithms in solving the EEFJSP.
