Abstract
This paper proposes a novel learnheuristic called Binary SARSA - Sine Cosine Algorithm (BS-SCA) for solving combinatorial problems. The BS-SCA is a binary version of Sine Cosine Algorithm (SCA) using SARSA to select a binarization operator. This operator is required due SCA was created to work in continuous domains. The performance of BS-SCA is benchmarked with a Q-learning version of the learnheuristic. The problem tested was the Set Covering Problem and the results show the superiority of our proposal.
