GRASP with Path-Relinking for the Quadratic Assignment Problem

چکیده
This paper describes a GRASP with path-relinking heuristic for the quadratic assignment problem. GRASP is a multi-start procedure, where different points in the search space are probed with local search for high-quality solutions. Each iteration of GRASP consists of the construction of a randomized greedy solution, followed by local search, starting from the constructed solution. Path-relinking is an approach to integrate intensification and diversification in search. It consists in exploring trajectories that connect high-quality solutions. The trajectory is generated by introducing in the initial solution, attributes of the guiding solution. Experimental results illustrate the effectiveness of GRASP with path-relinking over pure GRASP on the quadratic assignment problem.

GRASP with path-relinking for the generalized quadratic assignment problem
The generalized quadratic assignment problem (GQAP) is a generalization of the NP-hard quadratic assignment problem (QAP) that allows multiple facilities to be assigned to a single location as long as the capacity of the location allows. The GQAP has numerous applications, including facility design, scheduling, and network design. In this paper, we propose several GRASP with path-relinking heur...

متن کاملAutomatic Tuning of GRASP with Path-Relinking Heuristics with a Biased Random-Key Genetic Algorithm
GRASP with path-relinking (GRASP+PR) is a metaheuristic for finding optimal or near-optimal solutions of combinatorial optimization problems. This paper proposes a new automatic parameter tuning procedure for GRASP+PR heuristics based on a biased random-key genetic algorithm (BRKGA). Given a GRASP+PR heuristic with n input parameters, the tuning procedure makes use of a BRKGA in a first phase t...
