Using a recently proposed model for combinatorial landscapes, Local Optima Networks (LON), we conduct a thorough analysis of two types of instances of the Quadratic Assignment Prob...
Abstract. The previously proposed cunning ant system (cAS), a variant of the ACO algorithm, worked well on the TSP and the results showed that the cAS could be one of the most prom...
We propose a network characterization of combinatorial fitness landscapes by adapting the notion of inherent networks proposed for energy surfaces [5]. We use the well-known fami...
This paper describes a GRASP with path-relinking heuristic for the quadratic assignment problem. GRASP is a multi-start procedure, where different points in the search space are p...
