Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization Problem Preprocessing: Theory and Empirical Analysis
Mark Lewis, Fred Glover
The Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization problem (QUBO) has become a unifying model for representing a wide range of combinatorial optimization problems, and for linking a v…
Logical and Inequality Implications for Reducing the Size and Complexity of Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization Problems
Fred Glover, Mark Lewis, Gary Kochenberger
The quadratic unconstrained binary optimization (QUBO) problem arises in diverse optimization applications ranging from Ising spin problems to classical problems in graph theory an…
Memetic search for identifying critical nodes in sparse graphs
Yangming Zhou, Jin-Kao Hao, Fred Glover
Critical node problems involve identifying a subset of critical nodes from an undirected graph whose removal results in optimizing a pre-defined measure over the residual graph. As…
A History of Metaheuristics
Kenneth Sorensen, Marc Sevaux, Fred Glover
This chapter describes the history of metaheuristics in five distinct periods, starting long before the first use of the term and ending a long time in the future.
Diversification-Based Learning in Computing and Optimization
Fred Glover, Jin-Kao Hao
Diversification-Based Learning (DBL) derives from a collection of principles and methods introduced in the field of metaheuristics that have broad applications in computing and opt…
A Tabu Search based clustering algorithm and its parallel implementation on Spark
Yinhao Lu, Buyang Cao, Cesar Rego +1
The well-known K-means clustering algorithm has been employed widely in different application domains ranging from data analytics to logistics applications. However, the K-means al…
Diversification Methods for Zero-One Optimization
Fred Glover
We introduce new diversification methods for zero-one optimization that significantly extend strategies previously introduced in the setting of metaheuristic search. Our methods in…
