Abstract. This paper engineers a new state-of-the-art Stochastic Local Search (SLS) for the Low Autocorrelation Binary Sequence (LABS) problem. The new SLS solver is obtained with ...
Stochastic local search (SLS) algorithms have recently been proven to be among the best approaches to solving computationally hard problems. SLS algorithms typically have a number...
We explore combining reinforcement learning with a hand-crafted local controller in a manner suggested by the chaotic control algorithm of Vincent, Schmitt and Vincent (1994). A c...
Abstract. In this survey we compare the similarities, differences and the complexities of two very different approaches to solve a general constraint satisfaction probblems (CSP). ...
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...
