Local search in combinatorial optimization

Local search in combinatorial optimization more books like this

by Emile L Aarts (Editor), Jan Karel Lenstra (Introduction by)

In the past three decades, local search has grown from a simple heuristic idea into a mature field of research in combinatorial optimization that is attracting ever-increasing attention. Local search is still the method of choice for NP-hard problems as it provides a robust approach for obtaining high-quality solutions to problems of a realistic ...

Data Mining: A Heuristic Approach

Data Mining: A Heuristic Approach more books like this

by Hussein Abbass, PH.D., Ruhul Sarker, PH.D., Charles Newton, PH.D.

Real life problems are known to be messy, dynamic and multi-objective, and involve high levels of uncertainty and constraints. Because traditional problem-solving methods are no longer capable of handling this level of complexity, heuristic search methods have attracted increasing attention in recent years for solving such problems. Inspired by ...

Understanding Planning Tasks: Domain Complexity and Heuristic Decomposition

Understanding Planning Tasks: Domain Complexity and Heuristic Decomposition more books like this

by Malte Helmert

Action planning has always played a central role in Artificial Intelligence. Given a description of the current situation, a description of possible actions and a description of the goals to be achieved, the task is to identify a sequence of actions, i.e., a plan that transforms the current situation into one that satisfies the goal description. ...

Bayesian Heuristic Approach to Discrete and Global Optimization: Algorithms, Visualization, Software, and Applications

Bayesian Heuristic Approach to Discrete and Global Optimization: Algorithms, Visualization, Software, and Applications more books like this

by Jonas Mockus, William Eddy, Gintaras Reklaitis

Bayesian decision theory is known to provide an effective framework for the practical solution of discrete and nonconvex optimization problems. This book is the first to demonstrate that this framework is also well suited for the exploitation of heuristic methods in the solution of such problems, especially those of large scale for which exact ...
