Abstract: Metaheuristic algorithms have demonstrated strong effectiveness in solving complex real-world optimization problems. This paper presents two discrete metaheuristic approaches for the ...

Abstract: In this paper we present a Variational Quantum Algorithm (VQA) for solving the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) that requires only $\mathcal{O}(n \log n)$ qubits and an ansatz whose topology ...

What is a Genetic Algorithm ? A genetic algorithm (GA) is a type of evolutionary algorithms inspired by the process of natural selection. Genetic algorithms are commonly used to generate solutions to ...
