Generalizing and Unifying Gray-box Combinatorial Optimization Operators
Francisco Chicano, Darrell Whitley, Gabriela Ochoa +1
Gray-box optimization leverages the information available about the mathematical structure of an optimization problem to design efficient search operators. Efficient hill climbers…
Dancing to the State of the Art? How Candidate Lists Influence LKH for Solving the Traveling Salesperson Problem
Jonathan Heins, Lennart Schäpermeier, Pascal Kerschke +1
Solving the Traveling Salesperson Problem (TSP) remains a persistent challenge, despite its fundamental role in numerous generalized applications in modern contexts. Heuristic solv…
Dynastic Potential Crossover Operator
Francisco Chicano, Gabriela Ochoa, Darrell Whitley +1
An optimal recombination operator for two parent solutions provides the best solution among those that take the value for each variable from one of the parents (gene transmission p…
NK Hybrid Genetic Algorithm for Clustering
Renato Tinós, Liang Zhao, Francisco Chicano +1
The NK hybrid genetic algorithm for clustering is proposed in this paper. In order to evaluate the solutions, the hybrid algorithm uses the NK clustering validation criterion 2 (NK…
Stochastic Subnetwork Annealing: A Regularization Technique for Fine Tuning Pruned Subnetworks
Tim Whitaker, Darrell Whitley
Pruning methods have recently grown in popularity as an effective way to reduce the size and computational complexity of deep neural networks. Large numbers of parameters can be re…
