This paper presents a novel cuckoo search algorithm called elite opposition - cuckoo search algorithm (ECS) for solving integer programming problems. The opposite solution of the elite individual in the population is generated by an opposition-based strategy in the proposed algorithm and form an opposite search space by constructing the opposite population that locates inside the dynamic search boundaries, then, the search space of the algorithm is guided to approximate the space in which the global optimum is included by simultaneously evaluating the current population and the opposite one. The results show that ECS algorithm has faster convergence speed, higher computational precision and is more effective for solving integer programming problems.

integerprogramming and minimax problems are essential tools in solving various problems that arise in data mining and machine learning such as multi-class data classification and feature selection problems. In this paper, we propose a new hybrid harmony search algorithm by combining the harmony search algorithm with the multidirectional search method in order to solve the integerprogramming and minimax problems. The proposed algorithm is called multidirectional harmony search algorithm (MDHSA). MDHSA starts the search by applying the standard harmony search for numbers of iteration then the best-obtained solution is passing to the multidirectional search method as an intensification process in order to accelerate the search and overcome the slow convergence of the standard harmony search algorithm. The proposed algorithm is balancing between the global exploration of the harmony search algorithm and the deep exploitation of the multidirectional search method. MDHSA algorithm is tested on seven integer programming problems and 15 minimax problems and compared against 12 algorithms for solving integer programming problems and 11 algorithms for solving minimax problems. The experiments results show the efficiency of the proposed algorithm and its ability to solve integerprogramming and minimax problems in reasonable time.

In this paper, we propose a new hybrid social spider algorithm with simplex Nelder-Mead method in order to solve integerprogramming and minimax problems. We call the proposed algorithm a Simplex Social Spider optimization (SSSO) algorithm. In the the proposed SSSO algorithm, we combine the social spider algorithm with its powerful capability of performing exploration, exploitation, and the Nelder-Mead method in order to refine the best obtained solution from the standard social spider algorithm. In order to investigate the general performance of the proposed SSSO algorithm, we test it on 7 integer programming problems and 10 minimax problems and compare against 10 algorithms for solving integer programming problems and 9 algorithms for solving minimax problems. The experiments results show the efficiency of the proposed algorithm and its ability to solve integer and minimax optimization problems in reasonable time.

A Greedy Randomized Adaptive Search Procedure (GRASP) is a heuristic method that has shown to be very powerful in solving combinatorial problems. In this paper we apply GRASP to solve the transmission network expansion problem. This procedure is an expert iterative sampling technique that has two phases for each iteration. The first, construction phase, finds a feasible solution for the problem. The second phase, a local search, seeks for improvements on construction phase solution by a local search. The best solution over all GRASP iterations is chosen as the result.

The weapon assignment problem has been modelled as a nonlinear integerprogramming problem(1). The problem is to assign weapons to the targets to maximise the optimum-target damage value. There are constraints on various types of weapons available and on minimum number of weapons by types to be assigned to various targets. The objective function is nonlinear, the constraints are linear in nature, and the decision variables are restricted to be integers. The results obtained by Bracken and McCormick(1) should not be applied to solve the problem of weapon assignment to target to maximise the optimum target damage value, because firstly, the results violate the constraints, and secondly, instead of using the integerprogramming techniques, the crude method of rounding off has been used to obtain the solution. In this study, the I-GRST algorithm developed by Deep and Pant(2,3) has been used to solve the weapon assignment problem. The results obtained are better than the results obtained by Bracken and McCormick(1) and also do not violate any constraints.

In this paper, we propose a new hybrid population-based meta-heuristics algorithm inspired by grey wolves in order to solve integerprogramming and minimax problems. The proposed algorithm is called Multidirectional Grey Wolf Optimizer (MDGWO) algorithm. In the proposed algorithm, we try to accelerate the standard grey wolf optimizer algorithm (GWO) by invoking the multidirectional search method with it in order to accelerate the search instead of letting the standard GWO run for more iterations without significant improvement in the results. MDGWO starts the search by applying the standard GWO search for a number of iterations, and then the best-obtained solution is passed to the multidirectional search method as an intensification process in order to accelerate the search and overcome the slow convergence of the standard GWO algorithm. We test MDGWO algorithm on seven integer programming problems and 10 minimax problems. Moreover, we compare against 11 algorithms for solving integer programming problems and 10 algorithms for solving minimax problems. Furthermore, we show the efficiency of the proposed algorithm and its ability to solve integer and minimax optimization problems in reasonable time by giving several results of the experiments.

Passenger transportation is an important part of the overall development problem of the nation and affects in some way nearly all aspects of mobility in general. This paper deals with the problems caused due to a decline in the performance of the State Transport Undertakings with a special reference to Delhi Transport Corporation. A Linear programming based technique called as Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is used to measure the efficiencies of various decision-making units. The analysis on this study is sought to provide a way to obtain a valid efficiency measure for each State Transport Undertaking.

Set Covering problems belong to a class of 0-1 integer programming problems which are NP-complete. The Set Covering problems have many applications such as location of emergency facilities, truck deliveries, political districting, Air Line Crew Scheduling, Networking and all other programmingproblems that need the decision variables of the form 0-1. In this paper an enumeration technique is developed to solve the Set Covering Problem using the combinatorial technique. The well-known Breadth First Search technique of graph theory forms the basis of the algorithm. The Set Covering problems with linear and nonlinear objective functions are discussed. At the end, the concept is extended for Multi-Objective Set Covering Problem. The algorithms developed in the paper are supported by numerical examples.

In this paper, we propose a new hybrid algorithm by combining the particle swarm optimization with a genetic arithmetical crossover operator after applying a modification on it in order to avoid the problem of stagnation and premature convergence of the population. In the final stage of the algorithm, we applied the Nelder-Mead method as a local search method in order to accelerate the convergence and avoid running the algorithm without any improvements in the results. We call the new proposed algorithm by simplex particle swarm optimization with a modified arithmetical crossover (SPSOAC). We test SPSOAC on 7 integerprogramming optimization benchmark functions, 10 minimax problems and 10 CEC05 functions. We present the general performance of the proposed algorithm by comparing SPSOAC against 13 benchmark algorithms. The Experiments results show the proposed algorithm is a promising algorithm and has a powerful performance.

Due to the simplicity of the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm, it has been applied to solve a large number of problems. ABC is a stochastic algorithm and it generates trial solutions with random moves, however it suffers from slow convergence. In order to accelerate the convergence of the ABC algorithm, we proposed a new hybrid algorithm, which is called Memetic Artificial Bee Colony for integerprogramming (MABCIP). The proposed algorithm is a hybrid algorithm between the ABC algorithm and a Random Walk with Direction Exploitation (RWDE) as a local search method. MABCIP is tested on 7 benchmark functions and compared with 4 particle swarm optimization algorithms. The numerical results demonstrate that MABCIP is an efficient and robust algorithm.
