Progressive Tree Neighborhood Applied to the Maximum Parsimony Problem
Abstract-- The Maximum Parsimony problem aims at reconstructing a phylogenetic tree from DNA sequences while minimizing the number of genetic transformations. To solve this NP-comp...

A bivariate probabilistic model-building genetic algorithm for graph bipartitioning
We investigate a bi-variate probabilistic model-building GA for the graph bipartitioning problem. The graph bipartitioning problem is a grouping problem that requires some modifi...

Cut-and-solve: An iterative search strategy for combinatorial optimization problems
Branch-and-bound and branch-and-cut use search trees to identify optimal solutions to combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper, we introduce an iterative search strategy...
