The paper presents a new genetic local search algorithm for multi-objective combinatorial optimization. The goal of the algorithm is to generate in a short time a set of approxima...
Quantum evolutionary algorithm (QEA) is proposed on the basis of the concept and principles of quantum computing, which is a classical metaheuristic algorithm for the approximate s...
Background: Protein structure comparison is a key problem in bioinformatics. There exist several methods for doing protein comparison, being the solution of the Maximum Contact Ma...
We consider problems requiring to allocate a set of rectangular items to larger rectangular standardized units by minimizing the waste. In two-dimensional bin packing problems the...
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 ...
