چکیده

W develop a new local search algorithm for binary optimization problems, whose complexity and performance are explicitly controlled by a parameter Q, measuring the depth of the local search neighborhood. We show that the algorithm is pseudo-polynomial for general cost vector c, and achieves a w2/42w−15 approximation guarantee for set packing problems with exactly w ones in each column of the constraint matrix A, when using Q = w2. Most importantly, we find that the method has practical promise on large, randomly generated instances of both set covering and set packing problems, as it delivers performance that is competitive with leading general-purpose optimization software (CPLEX 11.2).

OPTIMIZATION OF SKELETAL STRUCTURES USING IMPROVED GENETIC ALGORITHM BASED ON PROPOSED SAMPLING SEARCH SPACE IDEA

In this article, by Partitioning of designing space, optimization speed is tried to be increased by GA. To this end, designing space search is done in two steps which are global search and local search. To achieve this goal, according to meshing in FEM, firstly, the list of sections is divided to specific subsets. Then, intermediate member of each subset, as representative of subset, is defined...
