A Genetic Simulated Annealing Algorithm to Optimize the Small-World Network Generating Process

Figure 5

Optimizing results for improving efficiency of transforming a regular network into a small-world network. The figures show the topological structure of the NW model for adding edges. (a) shows the topology of the original regular network. (b)–(f) show the topology as k edges are added (k = 10, 20, 30, 40, 50).
