─ In this article a novel parallel hybrid algorithm is proposed for image restoration. The Image restoration problem is formulated as a Maximum a Posteriori (MAP) estimation problem. The noise free image is modeled as Markov Random Field Model. The MAP estimates are obtained by the proposed hybrid Tabu algorithms. The performance of the algorithm is enhanced by parallelizing the proposed hybrid...

Simulated Annealing is a family of randomized algorithms used to solve many combinatorial optimization problems. In practice they have been applied to solve some presumably hard (e.g., NP-complete) problems. The level of performance obtained has been promising [5, 2, 6, 14]. The success of this heuristic technique has motivated analysis of this algorithm from a theoretical point of view. In par...

We study errors of quantum annealing and simulated annealing to highlight better performance of quantum annealing over simulated annealing. Quantum annealing and simulated annealing perform optimization through a quantum adiabatic evolution and a quasi-static evolution respectively. In both methods, dynamics across a phase transition plays a crucial role. The Kibble-Zurek mechanism is known as ...

the markowitz issue of optimization can’t be solved by precise mathematical methods such as second order schematization, when real world condition and limitations are considered. on the other hand, most managers prefer to manage a small portfolio of available assets in place of a huge portfolio. it can be analogized to cardinal constrains, that is, constrains related to minimum and maximum curr...

Capabilities of enhanced simulated-annealing-based algorithms in solving process planning problems in reconfigurable manufacturing are investigated. The algorithms are enhanced by combining variants of the simulated annealing technique with other algorithm concepts such as (i) knowledge exploitation and (ii) parallelism. Four configurations of simulated annealing algorithms are devised and enga...

As multiobjective optimization problems have many solutions, evolutionary algorithms have been widely used for complex multiobjective problems instead of simulated annealing. However, simulated annealing also has favorable characteristics in the multimodal search. We developed several simulated annealing schemes for the multiobjective optimization based on this fact. Simulated annealing and evo...
