Abstract

The bipartite subgraph problem is a classical problem in combinatorial optimization. In this paper, we incorporate a chaotic discrete Hopfield neural network (CDHNN), as a local search scheme, into the discrete particle swarm optimization (DPSO) and develop a hybrid algorithm DPSO-CDHNN for the bipartite subgraph problem. The proposed algorithm not only performs exploration by using the population-based evolutionary search ability of the DPSO, but also performs exploitation by using the CDHNN. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has superior ability for bipartite subgraph problem.
