Application of Genetic Algorithm on Inclusive Labeling of a Graph

Abstract

As science developed, heuristic methods began to be used in graph coloring. Heuristic methods that have been used for graph coloring include Genetic Algorithm, Tabu Search, and Ant Colony Algorithm. A Genetic Algorithm is a method for solving optimization problems. In this study, the Genetic Algorithm will be used for the issue of labeling irregular vertices of inclusive distances to label any graph inclusively. We restrict an inclusive 1-distance to a simple graph using one-point crossover and mutation. The steps are a generation of random chromosomes, evaluating chromosome fitness values with tournament selection, conducting an evolutionary process consisting of one-point crossover and mutation, repeating the process until the termination criteria are met. The results of implementing the genetic algorithm on inclusive labeling can be determined by the chromatic number based on the adjacency matrix. The results of this labeling can be used as an alternative solution to the problem of inclusive labeling.
