Elementary landscape decomposition of the quadratic assignment problem
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...

No-commitment branch and bound search for distributed constraint optimization
We present a new polynomial-space algorithm for solving Distributed Constraint Optimization problems (DCOP). The algorithm, called NCBB, is branch and bound search with modificati...

The differential Ant-Stigmergy Algorithm for large-scale global optimization
— Ant-colony optimization (ACO) is a popular swarm intelligence metaheuristic scheme that can be applied to almost any optimization problem. In this paper, we address a performan...

Quasi-Exact BDD Minimization Using Relaxed Best-First Search
In this paper we present a new method for quasiexact optimization of BDDs using relaxed ordered best-first search. This general method is applied to BDD minimization. In contrast...

Latent variable crossover for k-tablet structures and its application to lens design problems
This paper presents the Real-coded Genetic Algorithms for high-dimensional ill-scaled structures, what is called, the ktablet structure. The k-tablet structure is the landscape th...
