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...
It is typical for the EA community that theory follows experiments. Most theoretical approaches use some model of the considered evolutionary algorithm (EA) but there is also some ...

— One of the major drawbacks of the Hopfield network is that when it is applied to certain polytopes of combinatorial problems, such as the traveling salesman problem (TSP), the...
Abstract. Ant Colonies AC optimization take inspiration from the behavior of real ant colonies to solve optimization problems. This paper presents a parallel model for ant colonies...
