Multilevel Optimization of Graph Bisection with Pheromones

چکیده
We present a multiple ant-colony algorithm (MACA) for the graph bisection problem. The aim of this paper is to compare the performance of the MACA with results on the benchmark graphs from Graph partitioning Archive at the University of Greenwich. Experimental results show that the MACA is comparable with the state-of-the-art graph bisection algorithms.

Graph Bisection Optimization: A Comparison Between GA, ILS and FF Metaheuristics
The aim of this paper is to compare different metaheuristics for the graph bisection problem. For this purpose, the Bui and Moon’s genetic algorithm adaptation for graph bisection is used. A second genetic algorithm adaptation for graph bisection is also presented. These algorithms are compared to an implementation of the iterated local search metaheuristic for graph bisection. All these metahe...
متن کاملGraph Bisection Modeled as Binary Quadratic Task Allocation and Solved via Tabu Search
Balanced graph bisection is an NP-complete problem which partitions a set of nodes in the graph G = (N,E) into two sets with equal cardinality such that a minimal sum of edge weights exists between the nodes in the two separate sets. In this paper we transform graph bisection to capacitated task allocation using variable substitutions to remove most capacity and assignment constraints. The resu...
متن کاملA Multilevel k–way Partitioning Algorithm for Finite Element Meshes using Competing Ant Colonies
The self–organizing properties of ant colonies are employed to tackle the classical combinatorial optimization problem of graph partitioning. Structural information from the graph is mapped onto an environment upon which a number of colonies compete for resources. Using Genetic Programming, a Foraging Strategy is evolved which when executed by the ants in each colony leads to a restructuring of...
متن کاملAn Implementation of State-of-the-Art Graph Bisection Algorithms
In recent decades, various graph partitioning heuristic algorithms have been developed by researchers, which are widely used in “realworld” applications. As a starting point of graph partition problem, graph bisection algorithms provide basic approaches and solutions for other graph partition instances. This work implemented part of contemporary graph bisection algorithms which produce high-qua...
متن کاملMultilevel hypergraph partitioning: applications in VLSI domain
In this paper, we present a new hypergraph partitioning algorithm that is based on the multilevel paradigm. In the multilevel paradigm, a sequence of successively coarser hypergraphs is constructed. A bisection of the smallest hypergraph is computed and it is used to obtain a bisection of the original hypergraph by successively projecting and refining the bisection to the next level finer hyper...
