The landscape formalism unites a finite candidate solution set to a neighborhood topology and an objective function. This construct can be used to model the behavior of local sea...
The Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP) is a well-known NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem that is at the core of many real-world optimization problems. We prove that QAP c...
We analyze various forms of the Frequency Assignment Problem using the theory of elementary landscapes. We show that three variants of the Frequency Assignment Problem are either ...
