Simulated Annealing Algorithm for Graph Coloring
نویسندگان
چکیده
The goal of this Random Walks project is to code and experiment the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method for the problem of graph coloring. In this report, we present the plots of cost function H by varying the parameters like q (Number of colors that can be used in coloring) and c (Average node degree). The results are obtained by using simulated annealing scheme, where the temperature (inverse of β) parameter in the MCMC is lowered progressively. Keywords—Graph Coloring, Simulated Annealing, MCMC Method.

A new Simulated Annealing algorithm for the robust coloring problem
The Robust Coloring Problem (RCP) is a generalization of the well-known Graph Coloring Problem where we seek for a solution that remains valid when extra edges are added. The RCP is used in scheduling of events with possible last-minute changes and study frequency assignments of the electromagnetic spectrum. This problem has been proved as NP-hard and in instances larger than 30 vertices, meta-...
متن کاملSIMULATED ANNEALING ALGORITHM FOR SELECTING SUBOPTIMAL CYCLE BASIS OF A GRAPH
The cycle basis of a graph arises in a wide range of engineering problems and has a variety of applications. Minimal and optimal cycle bases reduce the time and memory required for most of such applications. One of the important applications of cycle basis in civil engineering is its use in the force method to frame analysis to generate sparse flexibility matrices, which is needed for optimal a...

This paper presents a new heuristic algorithm for the graph coloring problem based on a combination of genetic algorithms and simulated annealing. Our algorithm exploits a novel crossover operator for graph coloring. Moreover, we investigate various ways in which simulated annealing can be used to enhance the performance of an evolutionary algorithm. Experiments performed on various collections...
متن کاملComparative Performance of Modified Simulated Annealing with Simple Simulated Annealing for Graph Coloring Problem
The problems which are NP-complete in nature are always attracting the computer scientists to develop some heuristic algorithms, generating optimal solution in time-space efficient manner compared to the existing ones. Coloring of the vertices of a graph with minimum number of colours belongs to the same category, where the algorithm designers are trying to propose some new algorithms for bette...
متن کاملThree Algorithms for Analyzing Fractal Software Networks
In this work we propose an algorithm for computing the fractal dimension of a software network, and compare its performances with two other algorithms. Object of our study are various large, object-oriented software systems. We built the associated graph for each system, also known as software network, analyzing the binary relationships (dependencies), among classes. We found that the structure...
