Abstract

This tutorial will focus on several new real-world applications that have been developed using an integrated set of methods, including Tabu Search, Scatter Search, Mixed Integer Programming, and Neural Networks, combined with simulation. Applications include project portfolio optimization and customer relationship management.

Using selection to improve quantum-behaved particle swarm optimisation

Quantum-behaved particle swarm optimisation (QPSO) algorithm is a global convergence guaranteed algorithms, which outperforms original PSO in search ability but has fewer parameters to control. This paper describes two selection mechanisms into QPSO to ...
Heuristic selection for stochastic search optimization: modeling solution quality by extreme value theory
CP'04: Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming

The success of stochastic algorithms is often due to their ability to effectively amplify the performance of search heuristics. This is certainly the case with stochastic sampling algorithms such as heuristic-biased stochastic sampling (HBSS) and value-...
Fitness proportionate selection based binary particle swarm optimization
GECCO Comp '14: Proceedings of the Companion Publication of the 2014 Annual Conference on Genetic and Evolutionary Computation

Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO) has shown its advantages not only in dealing with continous optimization problems, but also in dealing with discrete optimization problems. Binary Particle Swarm Optimization(BPSO), the discrete version of PSO, has been ...
