Osama Abdel-raouf, Ibrahim El-henawy, Mohamed Abdel-baset . Chaotic Harmony Search Algorithm with Different Chaotic Maps for Solving Assignment Problems. International Journal of Computer Applications. 86, 10 ( January 2014), 8-13. DOI=10.5120/15019-3307
This paper presents an improved version of a harmony meta-heuristic algorithm with different chaotic maps, (IHSCH), for solving the linear assignment problem. The proposed algorithm uses chaotic behavior to generation a candidate solution in a behavior similar to acoustic monophony. Numerical results show that the IHSCH is accurate and efficient in comparison with harmony search (HS) algorithm, improved harmony search (IHS) algorithm and traditional methods (Hungarian method).
