We take a theoretical approach to analysing conditions for terminating evolutionary algorithms. After looking at situations where much is known about the particular algorithm and problem class, we consider a more generic approach. Schemes that depend purely on the previous time to improvement are shown not to work. An alternative criterion, the lambda-parallel scheme, does terminate correctly (with high probability) for any randomised search heuristic algorithm on any problem, provided certain conditions on the improvement probabilities are met. A more natural and less costly approach is then presented based on the run-time so far. this is shown to work for the classes of monotonic and path problems (for Randomised Local Search). It remains an open question whether it works in a more general setting.

the graph coloring problem is a well-known optimization challenge, particularly relevant in dynamic environments where the graph undergoes continuous changes over time. evolutionary algorithms, known for their adaptability and effectiveness in handling NP-hard problems, are well-suited for tackling the issues related to coloring dynamic graphs. In this paper, we present a novel Similarity and Pool-Based evolutionary Algorithm designed to address the graph coloring problem on dynamic graphs. Our approach employs a partition-based representation that adapts to dynamic graph changes while preserving valuable historical information. the algorithm introduces an innovative similarity and conflict-based crossover operator aimed at minimizing the number of colors used, alongside a local search method to enhance solution diversity. We evaluated the performance of the proposed algorithm against a well-known heuristic for the graph coloring problem and a genetic algorithm with a dynamic population across a diverse set of dynamic graphs. Experimental results demonstrate that our algorithm consistently outperforms these alternatives by reducing the number of colors required in the majority of test cases.

this article deals with a basic greedy algorithm which, element by element, is able to construct a feasible solution to a wide family of combinatorialoptimization problems. the novelty is to guide the greedy algorithm by considering the elements of the problem by order of merit, following a social ranking method. Social rankings come from social choice theory. the method used in the present article, called lexicographic excellence, sorts individual elements on the basis of the performances of groups of elements. In order to validate our approach, we conduct a theoretical analysis on matroid optimization problems, followed by a thorough experimental study on the multi-dimensional knapsack and the maximum weight independent set problem, leading to promising results.

combinatorialoptimization problems can involve computationaly expensive fitness function, making their resolution challenging. Surrogate models are one of the effective techniques used to solve such black-box problems by guiding the search towards potentially good solutions. In this paper, we focus on the use of surrogate based on multinomial approaches, particularly based onWalsh functions, to tackle pseudo-Boolean problems. Although this approach can be effective, a potential drawback is the growth of the polynomial expansion with problem dimension. We introduce a method for analyzing real-world combinatorial black-box problems defined through numerical simulation. this method combines Walsh spectral analysis and polynomial regression. Consequently, we propose a sparse surrogate model that incorporates selected, relevant terms and is simpler to optimize. To demonstrate our approach, we apply it to the bus stop spacing problem, an exemplary combinatorial pseudo-Boolean challenge.

A common concept to ensure the security of IT systems, in which multiple users share access to common resources, is Role Based Access Control (RBAC). Permissions, which correspond to the authorization to perform an operation on a data or business object are grouped into roles. these roles are then assigned to users. the corresponding optimization problem, the so-called Role Mining Problem (RMP), aims at finding a role concept comprising a minimal set of such roles and was shown to be NP-complete. However, in real-world role mining scenarios, it is typically the case that, besides the number of roles, further key figures must be consulted in order to adequately evaluate role concepts. therefore, in this paper, the RMP is extended to a multi-objective (MO) optimization problem. Potential optimization objectives are discussed in the context of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems. Furthermore, it is shown, how evolutionary algorithms for the RMP can be adapted to meet the requirements of MO role mining. Based on this, the integration of different optimization objectives is examined and evaluated in a series of experiments.

this paper explores a novel approach aimed at overcoming existing challenges in the realm of local search algorithms. the main objective is to better manage information within these algorithms, while retaining simplicity and generality in their core components. Our goal is to equip a neural network withthe same information as the basic local search and, after a training phase, use the neural network as the fundamental move component within a straightforward local search process. To assess the efficiency of this approach, we develop an experimental setup centered around NK landscape problems, offering the flexibility to adjust problem size and ruggedness. this approach offers a promising avenue for the emergence of new local search algorithms and the improvement of their problem-solving capabilities for black-box problems.
