چکیده

Quadratic assignment problem is one of the great challenges in combinatorial optimization. It has many applications in Operations research and Computer Science. In this paper, the author extends the most-used rounding approach to a one-parametric optimization model for the quadratic assignment problems. A near-optimum parameter is also predestinated. The numerical experiments confirm the efficiency.

A Honey Bee Algorithm To Solve Quadratic Assignment Problem

Assigning facilities to locations is one of the important problems, which significantly is influence in transportation cost reduction. In this study, we solve quadratic assignment problem (QAP), using a meta-heuristic algorithm with deterministic tasks and equality in facilities and location number. It should be noted that any facility must be assign to only one location. In this paper, first o...

Effective heuristics and meta-heuristics for the quadratic assignment problem with tuned parameters and analytical comparisons

Quadratic assignment problem (QAP) is a well-known problem in the facility location and layout. It belongs to the NP-complete class. There are many heuristic and meta-heuristic methods, which are presented for QAP in the literature. In this paper, we applied 2-opt, greedy 2-opt, 3-opt, greedy 3-opt, and VNZ as heuristic methods and tabu search (TS), simulated annealing, and pa...

Using Greedy Randomize Adaptive Search Procedure for solve the Quadratic Assignment Problem

  Greedy randomize adaptive search procedure is one of the repetitive meta-heuristic to solve combinatorial problem. In this procedure, each repetition includes two, construction and local search phase. A high quality feasible primitive answer is made in construction phase and is improved in the second phase with local search. The best answer result of iterations, declare as output. In this stu...

Robust Quadratic Assignment Problem with Uncertain Locations

 We consider a generalization of the classical quadratic assignment problem, where coordinates of locations are uncertain and only upper and lower bounds are known for each coordinate. We develop a mixed integer linear programming model as a robust counterpart of the proposed uncertain model. A key challenge is that, since the uncertain model involves nonlinear objective function of the ...

Lem with Special Emphasis on Instances That Are Difficult for Meta - Heuristic Methods Zvi Drezner

This paper reports heuristic and exact solution advances for the Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP). QAP instances frequently used in the literature are relatively well solved by heuristic approaches. Indeed, solutions at a fraction of one percent from the best known solution values are rapidly found by most heuristic methods. Exact methods are not able to prove optimality for these instances a...
