An Evolutionary Annealing Approach to Graph Coloring
This paper presents a new heuristic algorithm for the graph coloring problem based on a combination of genetic algorithms and simulated annealing. Our algorithm exploits a novel cr...

Hyperplane Annealing and Activator-Inhibitor-Systems
This paper introduces a new optimization technique called hyperplane annealing. It is similar to the mean field annealing approach to combinatorial optimization. Both annealing te...

Fast Heuristics for the Edge Coloring of Large Graphs
Heuristic algorithms for coloring the edges of large undirected single-edge graphs with (or very close to) the minimal number of colors are presented. Compared to simulated anneal...

Parallel Simulated Annealing Algorithm for Graph Coloring Problem
Abstract. The paper describes an application of Parallel Simulated Annealing (PSA) for solving one of the most studied NP-hard optimization problems: Graph Coloring Problem (GCP). ...

Adaptive Simulated Annealing: A Near-optimal Connection between Sampling and Counting
We present a near-optimal reduction from approximately counting the cardinality of a discrete set to approximately sampling elements of the set. An important application of our wo...
