Maximum Independent Sets Using Hybrid Approach of Grey Wolf Optimizer and Genetic Algorithm
摘要
This paper presents a soft computing based method to solve the problem of the maximum independent set, which is one of the major problems in distributed computing. The maximum independent set is an NP-hard problem for all types of graphs. The proposed method features a robust approach that produces a result in polynomial time. We propose a hybrid Gray wolf optimizer and genetic algorithm. This combination helps to find better solutions more efficiently. The main objective of the hybrid approach is to balance exploration in which trying different possibilities is handled by the grey wolf optimizer, which focuses on and improves the best possibilities which are handled by the genetic algorithm. Our proposed GWO_GA algorithm achieves a polynomial time complexity of
