We introduce a new method for nding several types of optimal k-point sets, minimizing perimeter, diameter, circumradius, and related measures, by testing sets of the O(k) nearest ...
Edge Assembly Crossover (EAX) is by far the most successful crossover operator in solving the traveling salesman problem (TSP) with Genetic Algorithms (GAs). Various improvements ...
: FASTER is a combinatorial optimization algorithm useful for finding low-energy side-chain configurations in side-chain placement and protein design calculations. We present two s...
We consider the problem of designing error correcting codes (ECC), a hard combinatorial optimization problem of relevance in the field of telecommunications. This problem is firs...
