Randomized Parallel Algorithms for the Multidimensional Assignment Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Multidimensional Assignment Problem (MAP) is a combinatorial optimization problem arising in diverse applications such as computer vision and motion tracking. In the MAP, the objective is to match tuples of objects with minimum total cost. Randomized parallel algorithms are proposed to solve MAPs appearing in Multi-Sensor Multi-Target applications. A parallel construction heuristic is described, together with some variations, as well as a parallel local search heuristic. Experimental results using the proposed algorithms are discussed.

Parallelizing Assignment Problem with DNA Strands
Background:Many problems of combinatorial optimization, which are solvable only in exponential time, are known to be Non-Deterministic Polynomial hard (NP-hard). With the advent of parallel machines, new opportunities have been emerged to develop the effective solutions for NP-hard problems. However, solving these problems in polynomial time needs massive parallel machines and ...

Detecting and tracking ground targets is crucial in military intelligence in battlefield surveillance. Once targets have been detected, the system used can proceed to track them where tracking can be done using Ground Moving Target Indicator (GMTI) type indicators that can observe objects moving in the area of interest. However, when targets move close to each other in formation as a convoy, th...

Over the past few decades great efforts were made to solve uncertain hybrid optimization problems. The n-Queen problem is one of such problems that many solutions have been proposed for. The traditional methods to solve this problem are exponential in terms of runtime and are not acceptable in terms of space and memory complexity. In this study, parallel genetic algorithms are proposed to solve...

In this paper, a Job shop scheduling problem with a parallel assembly stage and Lot Streaming (LS) is considered for the first time in both machining and assembly stages. Lot Streaming technique is a process of splitting jobs into smaller sub-jobs such that successive operations can be overlapped. Hence, to solve job shop scheduling problem with a parallel assembly stage and lot streaming, deci...
