Statistical Analysis of Tool Switching Problem (ToSP)

 

A non-parametrical statistical test -Wilcoxon ranksum- was executed on the results returned by n the executions performed by MaHC, TS and  RingSDI. Then a comparison between each method with the other was executed but reasons of space we present two essential tables based in the better computational results of methods according to Tables A and B.

 

Tables from 1 to 16 show the results of the comparison n methods vs. n methods for one instance. Each cell in the tables indicates the number of times that the corresponding algorithm is significantly better than the other one with respect to the 5 datasets per instance. For example, a 1 appearing in Table 1 for the instance 109 in the column of TSP means that the MaHC behaves significantly better, according to the statistical test, than the TS in 1 of the 5 datasets that were used to solve the specific problem instance. ToSP involves scheduling a number of jobs on a single machine such that the resulting number of tool switches required is kept to a minimum.
