The facility location problems (FLPs) are a typical class of NP-hard combinatorial optimization problems, which are widely seen in the supply chain and logistics. Many mathematical and heuristic algorithms have been developed for optimizing…

The Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) is one of the most famous optimization problems. Greedy crossover designed by Greffenstette et al, can be used while Symmetric TSP (STSP) is resolved by Genetic Algorithm (GA). Researchers have proposed…

The method of Hol\'y, Sokol and \v{C}ern\'y (Applied Soft Computing, 2017, Vol. 60, p. 752-762) clusters objects based on their incidence in a large number of given sets. The idea is to minimize the occurrence of multiple objects from the…

An interior-point algorithm framework is proposed, analyzed, and tested for solving nonlinearly constrained continuous optimization problems. The main setting of interest is when the objective and constraint functions may be nonlinear…

We consider solving high-order semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxations of nonconvex polynomial optimization problems (POPs) that often admit degenerate rank-one optimal solutions. Instead of solving the SDP alone, we propose a new…

Extensive research has been conducted, over recent years, on various ways of enhancing heuristic search for combinatorial optimization problems with machine learning algorithms. In this study, we investigate the use of predictions from…

Compared to other techniques, particle swarm optimization is more frequently utilized because of its ease of use and low variability. However, it is complicated to find the best possible solution in the search space in large-scale…

In the decremental single-source shortest paths (SSSP) problem, the input is an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges undergoing edge deletions, together with a fixed source vertex $s\in V$. The goal is to maintain a…

We study a new version of the Traveling Salesperson Problem, called \VectorTSP, where the traveler is subject to discrete acceleration constraints, as defined in the paper-and-pencil game Racetrack (also known as Vector Racer). In this…

Predicting the cheapest sample size for the optimal stratification in multivariate survey design is a problem in cases where the population frame is large. A solution exists that iteratively searches for the minimum sample size necessary to…

The Multiple Traveling Salesman Problem (mTSP) extends the Traveling Salesman Problem to m tours that start and end at a common depot and jointly visit all customers exactly once. In the min-max variant, the objective is to minimize the…

Many resource allocation problems in the cloud can be described as a basic Virtual Network Embedding Problem (VNEP): finding mappings of request graphs (describing the workloads) onto a substrate graph (describing the physical…

This paper addresses the path selection problem from a known source to the destination in dense networks. The proposed solution for route discovery uses the genetic algorithm approach for a QoS based network. The multi point crossover and…

Generalized traveling salesman problem (GTSP) is an extension of classical traveling salesman problem (TSP), which is a combinatorial optimization problem and an NP-hard problem. In this paper, an efficient discrete state transition…

Distributed Constraint Optimization Problems (DCOPs) are an important subclass of combinatorial optimization problems, where information and controls are distributed among multiple autonomous agents. Previously, Machine Learning (ML) has…

Constrained multi-objective optimization problems (CMOPs) are of great significance in the context of practical applications, ranging from scientific to engineering domains. Most existing constrained multi-objective evolutionary algorithms…

Meta-heuristics are frequently used to tackle NP-hard combinatorial optimization problems. With this paper we contribute to the understanding of the success of 2-opt based local search algorithms for solving the traveling salesman problem…

This work addresses a Multi-Objective Shortest Path Problem (MO-SPP) on a graph where the goal is to find a set of Pareto-optimal solutions from a start node to a destination in the graph. A family of approaches based on MOA* have been…

We study integrality gaps and approximability of two closely related problems on directed graphs. Given a set V of n nodes in an underlying asymmetric metric and two specified nodes s and t, both problems ask to find an s-t path visiting…

In this paper, a parametric simplex algorithm for solving linear vector optimization problems (LVOPs) is presented. This algorithm can be seen as a variant of the multi-objective simplex (Evans-Steuer) algorithm [12]. Different from it, the…
