Municipal solid waste management is a major challenge for nowadays urban societies, because it accounts for a large proportion of public budget and, when mishandled, it can lead to environmental and social problems.

Generative adversarial networks (GANs) exhibit training pathologies that can lead to convergence-related degenerative behaviors, whereas spatially-distributed, coevolutionary algorithms (CEAs) for GAN training, e. g. Lipizzaner, are empirically robust to them.

This is a relevant problem because the design of most cities prioritizes the use of motorized vehicles, which has degraded air quality in recent years, having a negative effect on urban health.

We investigate the impact on the performance of two algorithm components that influence the diversity during coevolution: the performance-based selection/replacement inside each sub-population and the communication through migration of solutions (networks) among overlapping neighborhoods.
