Effects of Random Values for Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm

  • Hou-Ping Dai,
  • Dong-Dong Chen and
  • Zhou-Shun Zheng

15 February 2018

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is generally improved by adaptively adjusting the inertia weight or combining with other evolution algorithms. However, in most modified PSO algorithms, the random values are always generated by uniform dis...

Vertex Cover Reconfiguration and Beyond

  • Amer E. Mouawad,
  • Naomi Nishimura,
  • Venkatesh Raman and
  • Sebastian Siebertz

9 February 2018

In the Vertex Cover Reconfiguration (VCR) problem, given a graph G, positive integers k and and two vertex covers S and T of G of size at most k, we determine whether S can be transformed into T by a sequence of at most vertex additions or remova...

Common Nearest Neighbor Clustering—A Benchmark

  • Oliver Lemke and
  • Bettina G. Keller

9 February 2018

Cluster analyses are often conducted with the goal to characterize an underlying probability density, for which the data-point density serves as an estimate for this probability density. We here test and benchmark the common nearest neighbor (CNN) cl...
