A fast hybrid genetic algorithm for the quadratic assignment problem
Genetic algorithms (GAs) have recently become very popular by solving combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper, we propose an extension of the hybrid genetic algorithm f...

Envy Quotes and the Iterated Core-Selecting Combinatorial Auction
Using a model of agent behavior based around envy-reducing strategies, we describe an iterated combinatorial auction in which the allocation and prices converge to a solution in t...
