Local search heuristics for Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO)

TL;DR: A family of local-search-based heuristics for Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO), all of which start with a (possibly fractional) initial point, sequentially improving its quality by rounding or switching the value of one variable, until arriving to a local optimum.

Performance of simulated annealing-based heuristic for the unconstrained binary quadratic programming problem

TL;DR: In this article, a simulated annealing (SA)-based heuristic for the unconstrained binary quadratic programming problem (BQP) is presented, which is based on a simple (1-opt) local search heuristic and designed with a simple cooling schedule.

Memetic algorithms for the unconstrained binary quadratic programming problem.

TL;DR: A memetic algorithm, a highly effective evolutionary algorithm incorporating local search for solving the unconstrained binary quadratic programming problem (BQP), which includes a new variation operator that has been tailored specially for the application in the hybrid evolutionary framework.

Diversification-driven tabu search for unconstrained binary quadratic problems

TL;DR: This paper describes a Diversification-Driven Tabu Search (D2TS) algorithm for solving unconstrained binary quadratic problems that is highly competitive in terms of both solution quality and computational efficiency relative to some of the best performing heuristics in the literature.

Optimization by Simulated Annealing

TL;DR: There is a deep and useful connection between statistical mechanics and multivariate or combinatorial optimization (finding the minimum of a given function depending on many parameters), and a detailed analogy with annealing in solids provides a framework for optimization of very large and complex systems.

Computers and Intractability: A Guide to the Theory of NP-Completeness

TL;DR: The second edition of a quarterly column as discussed by the authors provides a continuing update to the list of problems (NP-complete and harder) presented by M. R. Garey and myself in our book "Computers and Intractability: A Guide to the Theory of NP-Completeness,” W. H. Freeman & Co., San Francisco, 1979.

Equation of state calculations by fast computing machines

TL;DR: In this article, a modified Monte Carlo integration over configuration space is used to investigate the properties of a two-dimensional rigid-sphere system with a set of interacting individual molecules, and the results are compared to free volume equations of state and a four-term virial coefficient expansion.
