Automated design of local search algorithms: Predicting algorithmic components with LSTM (2023)
Journal Article
Meng, W., & Qu, R. (2024). Automated design of local search algorithms: Predicting algorithmic components with LSTM. Expert Systems with Applications, 237(Part A), Article 121431. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.eswa.2023.121431

With a recently defined AutoGCOP framework, the design of local search algorithms has been defined as the composition of elementary algorithmic components. The effective compositions of the best algorithms thus retain useful knowledge of effective al...

Automated design of search algorithms: Learning on algorithmic components (2021)
Journal Article
Meng, W., & Qu, R. (2021). Automated design of search algorithms: Learning on algorithmic components. Expert Systems with Applications, 185, Article 115493. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.eswa.2021.115493

This paper proposes AutoGCOP, a new general framework for automated design of local search algorithms. In a recently established General Combinatorial Optimisation Problem (GCOP) model, the problem of algorithm design itself is defined as a combinato...
