Memetic algorithms with continuous local search methods have arisen as effective tools to address the difficulty of obtaining reliable solutions of high precision for complex cont...
A genetic local search (GLS) algorithm, which is a combination technique of genetic algorithm and local search, for the unconstrained binary quadratic programming problem (BQP) is...
