Constructive Pattern Generation Heuristic for Meeting SSO Limits
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract This paper discusses a heuristic for generating a minimal number of true/complement patterns while still meeting Simultaneous Switching Output (SSO) requirements. The algorithm presented herein generates the patterns by construction, as opposed to selecting the patterns from a larger superset of possible patterns. This potentially offers advantages in time and memory, since no information about the superset needs to be stored or analyzed. In addition, the algorithm appears to produce good results, which in this case means small pattern sets.

متن کاملCommunity Detection Based on Differential Evolution Using Social Spider Optimization
Community detection (CD) has become an important research direction for data mining in complex networks. Evolutionary algorithm-based (EA-based) approaches, among many other existing community detection methods, are widely used. However, EA-based approaches are prone to population degradation and local convergence. Developing more efficient evolutionary algorithms thus becomes necessary. In 201...
