The subgraph sampling scheme (SSS) is a technique originally introduced for Markov random fields. It is a powerful tool for designing heuristic algorithms for max-cut, quadratic unconstrained binary optimization (QUBO), and other optimization problems. The first application of SSS in combinatorial optimization, combined with dynamic programming, is in Selby's heuristic. This algorithm is shown to outperform quantum annealing for solving max-cut problems on chimera graphs. Leveraging SSS, we introduce two new algorithms. One is designed to handle general graphs, whereas the other is specifically tailored for toroidal grid graphs. To assess the effectiveness of these algorithms, we conducted a comprehensive evaluation. We used the same methodology, test bed, and set of 37 well-established heuristics for max-cut and QUBO problems as described in a recent study of Dunning, Gupta, and Silberholz. Notably, all three SSS-based algorithms consistently achieve top rankings in terms of performance. History: Accepted by Andrea Lodi, Area Editor for Design & Analysis of Algorithms–Discrete.
