본 논문은 작업일정계획에서 부하평준화 문제를 효율적으로 해결하기 위하여 tabu 탐색을 적용함에 있어서 확률적 선별에 기반하여 이웃해를 생성하는 방법을 제시한다. 이웃해 생성은 부하평준화를 위해 일정을 조정할 대상 작업을 선택하는 단계와 선택된 작업에 대해 일정 조정의 방향을 결정하는 단계로 구분된다. 확률적 선별에 기반한 이웃해 생성은 우선 무작위로 추출된 작업에 대해서 탐색의 질을 개선시킬 수 있는 가능성에 대한 추정치에 따라 확률을 부여하고, 이 확률에 기반하여 선택여부를 결정함으로써 이웃해를 선별하는 방법이다. 실제 현장의 부하평준화 문제를 대상으로 이웃해 생성 방법으로 무작위 방법, 그리디(greedy) 방법과의 비교 실험을 통해 확률적 선별에 기반한 이웃해 생성 방법의 성능을 검증하였다.

Local search has been used to solve various combinatorial optimization problems. One of the most important factors in local search is the method of generating a neighbor solution. In this paper, we propose neighbor generation strategies of local search for permutation-based combinatorial optimization, and compare the performance of each strategies targeting the traveling salesman problem. In this paper, we propose a total of 10 neighbor generation strategies. Basically, we propose 4 new strategies such as Rotation in addition to the 4 strategies such as Swap which have been widely used in the past. In addition, there are Combined1 and Combined2, which are made by combining basic neighbor generation strategies. The experiment was performed by applying the basic local search, but changing only the neighbor generation strategy. As a result of the experiment, it was confirmed that the performance difference is large according to the neighbor generation strategy, and also confirmed that the performance of Combined2 is the best. In addition, it was confirmed that Combined2 shows better performance than the existing local search methods.

For a local search algorithm to find a bettor quality solution it is required to generate and evaluate a sufficiently large number of candidate solutions as neighbors at each iteration, demanding quite an amount of CPU time. This paper presents a method of selectively generating only good-looking candidate neighbors, so that the number of neighbors can be kept low to improve the efficiency of search. In our method, a newly generated candidate solution is probabilistically selected to become a neighbor based on the quality estimation determined heuristically by a very simple evaluation of the generated candidate. Experimental results on the problem of load balancing for production scheduling have shown that our candidate selection method outperforms other random or greedy selection methods in terms of solution quality given the same amount of CPU time.

Simulated annealing has been studied a long times. And it is one of the effective techniques for test data generation. But basic SA methods showed bad performance because of neighborhood selection strategies in the case of large input domain. To overcome this limitation, we propose new neighborhood selection approach, Branch Distance. We performs case studies based on the proposed approach to evaluate it's performance and to compare it whit basic SA and Random test generation. The results of the case studies appear that proposed approach show better performance than the other approach.

Local search algorithms start from a certain candidate solution and probe its neighborhood to find ones with improved quality. This paper proposes a method of probabilistically filtering out bad-looking neighbors based on a simple low-cost preliminary evaluation heuristics. The probabilistic filtering enables us to save time wasted on fully evaluating those solutions that will eventually be trashed, and thus improves the search efficiency by allowing us to spend more time on examining better looking solutions. Experiments with two large-scaled real-world problems, which are a traffic signal control problem in traffic network and a load balancing problem in production scheduling, have shown that the proposed method finds better quality solutions, given the same amount of CPU time.

One-dimensional 3-neighborhood Cellular Automata (CA)-based pseudo-random number generators are widely applied in generating test patterns to evaluate system performance and generating key sequence generators in cryptographic systems. In this paper, in order to design a CA-based key sequence generator that can generate more complex and confusing sequences, we study a one-dimensional symmetric 5-neighborhood CA that expands to five neighbors affecting the state transition of each cell. In particular, we propose an n-cell one-dimensional symmetric 5-neighborhood CA synthesis algorithm using the algebraic method that uses the Krylov matrix and the one-dimensional 90/150 CA synthesis algorithm proposed by Cho et al. [6].

타부 탐색은 타부 전략 기법과 최급 강하 알고리즘이 결합된 알고리즘이다. 이는 한번 방문한 해는 다시 방문하지 않음으로써 지역 최적해에 수렴하지 않고 새로운 방향으로 움직이게 하여 공간 탐색 능력 효율을 높인다. 그러나 기존의 타부 탐색에서 이웃 해를 생성하는 방법에 따라 성능이 많이 좌우된다. 좋지 않은 이웃 해를 생성하는 탐색에서는 얻고자 하는 최적해에 수렴하는 시간이 많이 걸린다. 따라서 이웃 해를 생성할 때 해밍 거리를 고려하여 균형 있는 이웃 해론 생성하고, 해 공간은 탐색함으로써 우수한 최적해를 얻게 됨을 본 논문에서는 보여주고 있다. 이는 다양성도 보장되므로 최적해에 수렴해 가는 속도 또한 빠른 것을 보여주고 있다.

A pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) is a program used when a large amount of random numbers is needed. It is used to generate symmetric keys in symmetric key cryptography systems, generate public key pairs in public key cryptography or digital signatures, and generate columns used for padding with disposable pads. Cellular Automata (CA), which is useful for specific representing nonlinear dynamics in various scientific fields, is a discrete and abstract computational system that can be implemented in hardware and is applied as a PRNG that generates keys in cryptographic systems. In this paper, I propose an algorithm for synthesizing a programmable 5-neighbor CA based PRNG that can effectively generate a nonlinear sequence using 5-neighbor CA with the radius of the neighboring cell increased by 2.

The traveling salesman problem(TSP) is one of the most famous combinatorial optimization problem. So far, many metaheuristic search algorithms have been proposed to solve the problem, and one of them is local search. One of the very important factors in local search is neighbor generation method, and random-based neighbor generation methods such as inversion have been mainly used. This paper proposes 4 new greedy-based neighbor generation methods. Three of them are based on greedy insertion heuristic which insert selected cities one by one into the current best position. The other one is based on greedy rotation. The proposed methods are applied to first-choice hill-climbing search and simulated annealing which are representative local search algorithms. Through the experiment, we confirmed that the proposed greedy-based methods outperform the existing random-based methods. In addition, we confirmed that some greedy-based methods are superior to the existing local search methods.

To evaluate the performance of a system, one-dimensional 3-neighborhood cellular automata(CA) based pseudo-random generators are widely used in many fields. Although two-dimensional CA and one-dimensional 5-neighborhood CA have been applied for more effective key sequence generation, designing symmetric one-dimensional 5-neighborhood CA corresponding to a given primitive polynomial is a very challenging problem. To solve this problem, studies on one-dimensional 5-neighborhood CA synthesis, such as synthesis method using recurrence relation of characteristic polynomials and synthesis method using Krylov matrix, were conducted. However, there was still a problem with solving nonlinear equations. To solve this problem, a symmetric one-dimensional 5-neighborhood CA synthesis method using a transition matrix of 90/150 CA and a block matrix has recently been proposed. In this paper, we detail the theoretical process of the proposed algorithm and use it to obtain symmetric one-dimensional 5-neighborhood CA corresponding to high-order primitive polynomials.
