We show that searching the k-change neighborhood is W[1]-hard for metric TSP, which means that finding the best tour in the k-change neighborhood essentially requires complete sea...
Unpredictability in the running time of complete search procedures can often be explained by the phenomenon of "heavy-tailed cost distributions", meaning that at any tim...
A hybrid algorithm is devised to boost the performance of complete search on under-constrained problems. We suggest to use random variable selection in combination with restarts, ...
