ABSTRACT
Image reconstruction from projections in tomography is an ill-posed, inverse problem. This problem is always a challenge because there are no standard methods which give satisfactory results. In this paper we propose hybridization between Local Search (LS) and Harmony Search (HS) metaheuristics to improve quality of reconstructed images. The proposed method is implemented, tested on some images and compared to LS and Filtered backprojection (FBP) methods. The preliminary results are promising and prove the efficiency of our method.

Greedy and Local Search Heuristics for Unconstrained Binary Quadratic Programming
In this paper, a greedy heuristic and two local search algorithms, 1-opt local search and k-opt local search, are proposed for the unconstrained binary quadratic programming problem (BQP). These heuristics are well suited for the incorporation into meta-...

Hybridization of tabu search with feasible and infeasible local searches for the quadratic multiple knapsack problem
The quadratic multiple knapsack problem (QMKP) concerns assigning a set of objects, which interact among themselves through paired profit values, to a set of capacity-constrained knapsacks such that the overall profit of the objects included in the ...
