Title
An efficient discrete PSO coupled with a fast local search heuristic for the DNA fragment assembly problem
Abstract
•Our new PSO exploits the structure of the DNA fragment assembly task and works directly in the combinatorial search space.•It ensures uniform convergence and an appropriate balance between intensification and diversification.•It performs much better than PSO variants with space transformation techniques.•Furthermore, a new fast variant of the best state-of-the-art local search is designed.•Memetic algorithms taking advantage of the strengths of the proposed algorithms perform better than the best existing techniques.
