Heuristics for the Maximal Diversity Selection Problem

Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 6

Abstract

 The problem of selecting k items from among a given set of N items such that the ‘diversity’ among the k items is maximum, is a classical problem with applications in many diverse areas such as forming committees, jury selection, product testing, surveys, plant breeding, ecological preservation, capital investment, etc. A suitably defined distance metric is used to determine the diversity. However, this is a hard problem, and the optimal solution is computationally intractable. In this paper we present the experimental evaluation of two approximation algorithms (heuristics) for the maximal diversity selection problem.
