A Comparative Study of Linear and Semidefinite Branch-and-Cut Methods for Solving the Minimum Graph Bisection Problem
Abstract. Semidefinite relaxations are known to deliver good approximations for combinatorial optimization problems like graph bisection. Using the spectral bundle method it is pos...

A Hybrid Method for Solving Large-Scale Supply Chain Problems
Abstract. The strategic supply chain design problem which allows capacity shifts and budget limitations can be formulated as a linear program. Since facilities are allowed to be op...

Improved analysis methods for crossover-based algorithms
We deepen the theoretical analysis of the genetic algorithm for the all-pairs shortest path problem proposed by Doerr, Happ and Klein (GECCO 2008). We show that the growth of the ...

Swarming methods for geospatial reasoning
Geospatial data is often used to predict or recommend movements of robots, people, or animals ("walkers"). Analysis of such systems can be combinatorially explosive. Eac...

Kernelization as Heuristic Structure for the Vertex Cover Problem
Abstract. For solving combinatorial optimisation problems, exact methods accurately exploit the structure of the problem but are tractable only up to a certain size; approximation ...
