Parameter tuning in quantum-inspired evolutionary algorithms for partitioning complex networks

Published:12 July 2014Publication History

ABSTRACT

We propose a numeric variant of quantum-inspired evolutionary algorithm (QIEA) where gene in the quantum chromosome is a superposition of k qubits, thus allowing the genes of the classical chromosome to take numeric values. We also present a modified form of real observation QIEA. Both these techniques are applied to the problem of partitioning a complex network. The algorithm parameters are tuned using an evolutionary bilevel search optimization technique.
