Abstract. The previously proposed cunning ant system (cAS), a variant of the ACO algorithm, worked well on the TSP and the results showed that the cAS could be one of the most prom...
Abstract. Four local search algorithms are investigated for the phylogenetic tree reconstruction problem under the Maximum Parsimony criterion. A new subtree swapping neighborhood ...
Abstract. Since minimum sum-of-squares clustering (MSSC) is an NPhard combinatorial optimization problem, applying techniques from global optimization appears to be promising for r...
Abstract. We consider the variant of the classical Stable Marriage problem where preference lists can be incomplete and may contain ties. In such a setting, finding a stable matchi...
This paper is concerned with a specific brand of evolutionary algorithms: Memetic algorithms. A new local search technique with an adaptive neighborhood setting process is introdu...
