🌱 Algorithm Overview

SimLogicTSA introduces binary versions of the TSA by:

• Utilizing Hamming distance as a similarity measure to guide search
• Integrating XOR, AND, and OR logic operators to update seed solutions
• Applying different transformation strategies for diversification and intensification

Tested on benchmark binary optimization problems from the literature.
