Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• SOCIAL: small-world search via centrality-weighted knowledge diffusion. • Multi-phase schedule shifts from exploration to elite-guided exploitation. • Competitive or superior to 16 metaheuristics on 23 benchmarks, six engineering tasks. • Interpretable search via betweenness, influence propagation, and elite memory. • Reduced parameter sensitivity, qualitative complexity, and convergence analysis.
