Course Objectives: | The aim of this course is to provide the students with the knowledge of mathematical modeling and the operation of heuristic algorithms. Topics include basic intuitive structures (greedy, improvement, construction); simulated annealing, tabu search, genetic algorithm, ant colony and similar metasoric algorithms. The basic information about the intuitions in the courses will be provided as a note. Students are expected to make various applications related to the course. In addition, as a project assignment, they are expected to write a program to solve a problem with a suitable heuristic method and to measure the performance of this program. |
