23 Sep 2003 | | Journal: | Journal of Combinatorial Optimization 8 (2004), 41-63 | | Subject: | Neural and Evolutionary Computing ACM-class: F.2.2; I.2.8 | cs.NE | | Abstract: | We introduce two novel evolutionary formulations of the problem of coloring the nodes of a graph. The first formulation is based on the relationship that exists between a graph’s chromatic number and its acyclic orientations. It views such orientations as individuals and evolves them with the aid of evolutionary operators that are very heavily based on the structure of the graph and its acyclic orientations. The second formulation, unlike the first one, does not tackle one graph at a time, but rather aims at evolving a `program’ to color all graphs belonging to a class whose members all have the same number of nodes and other common attributes. The heuristics that result from these formulations have been tested on some of the Second DIMACS Implementation Challenge benchmark graphs, and have been found to be competitive when compared to the several other heuristics that have also been tested on those graphs. | | Source: | arXiv, cs.NE/0309039 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
