Attraction area of minima in quadratic binary optimization

Abstract: The paper deals with the problem of quadratic functional minimization in the space of binary variables. We analyze the efficiency of the random search procedure used in binary minimiza tion and show that the radius of the attraction area of a minimum directly depends on its depth: the deeper the minimum, the greater its radius of attraction. Thus, the probability of finding a minimum during random search grows exponentially with depth of the minimum.

“…and the energy-dimensionality dependence is reduced to expression The knowledge of the local minima spectrum is necessary in many fields of science. In informatics it is essential for tackling quadratic minimization problems [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10], generating algorithms for searching the global minimum [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] and the optimal graph cross section [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26]. In neuroinformatics the knowledge of spectra is necessary for building associative memory systems [27][28][29][30][31][32][33][60][61], developing neural nets and neural minimization algorithms [34][35][36][37][38][39][40].…”

“…Our modification, termed AmplifySAT, is inspired by the quantum AA algorithm, and has the qualitative effect of "amplifying", or "deepening" the global optimum of an objective function encoding a SAT problem. Transformations of the objective function that target the extrema are not common, but have been explored in some works, e.g., [33], [34]. The iterative nature of AA means that the degree of amplification of the extrema can be coarsely controlled.…”

“…In many fields of science, it is necessary to know the global energy minimum for different systems. Namely, in informatics we use it when solving problems of quadratic optimization [1][2][3][4][5][6], developing search algorithms for the global minimum [7][8][9][10][11][12] and solving max-cut problems [13][14][15][16][17]. In neuroinformatics, we have to know the global minimum when developing associative memory systems [18][19][20][21] and constructing neural networks and neural network minimization algorithms [22][23][24].…”
