Featured Concepts

Iterated Local Search (ILS)

Iterated Local Search is an optimization algorithm that iteratively applies a local search procedure to perturbations of the current solution. Key concepts include:

• Local search methods
• Perturbation techniques
• Acceptance criteria
• Applications in combinatorial optimization

Simulated Annealing (SA)

Simulated Annealing is a probabilistic optimization algorithm inspired by the annealing process in metallurgy. Key concepts include:

• Cooling schedules
• Probability of acceptance
• Energy states
• Applications in global optimization

Genetic Algorithms (GA)

Genetic Algorithms are search heuristics inspired by the process of natural selection. Key concepts include:

• Population and chromosomes
• Selection, crossover, and mutation
• Fitness functions
• Applications in optimization and search problems

Machine Learning

Machine Learning is a subset of AI focused on developing algorithms that enable computers to learn from and make predictions based on data. Key concepts include:

• Supervised and unsupervised learning
• Neural networks and deep learning
• Feature engineering
• Model evaluation and validation

Comparative Studies

• Compare_ILS_and_SA/: This directory contains studies comparing Iterated Local Search and Simulated Annealing algorithms, highlighting their strengths, weaknesses, and applications.
