Abstract

A feedback neural network for solving graph coloring problem is presented. The circuit has an associated transcendental energy function that ensures fast convergence to the exact solution. Hardware and PSPICE simulation results on random and benchmark problems have been presented. Test results are compared with existing techniques for graph coloring to show that the proposed neural network model provides a significant reduction in the number of colors while enjoying a simple and efficient circuit implementation.
