“…Computational intelligence (CI) theories such as evolutionary algorithms [22,23], artificial neural networks [24], cognitive map analysis [25], Physarum solver [26][27][28], fuzzy sets [29][30][31], belief function [32][33][34], PSO [35][36][37], and so on [38], have been widely used to cope the complex problems including the permutation flow shop problem [39], supply chain network [40,41], traveling salesman problem [42], pattern recognition [43][44][45][46], power system [47], product design and manufacturing [48], and so on [49][50][51][52]. Recently, based on this progress in CI, many nature inspired approaches have been proposed to solve test selection optimization problem, such as the greedy strategy [53], the genetic algorithm [54,55], the evolutionary algorithm [56,57], and so on [58].…”
