Abstract
This paper investigates the automatic generation of a Map-Reduce program, which implements a heuristic for an NP-complete problem with machine learning. The objective is to automatically design a new concurrent algorithm that finds solutions of comparable quality to the original heuristic. Our approach, called Savant, is inspired from the savant syndrome. Its concurrency model is based on Map-Reduce. The approach is evaluated with the well-known Min-Min heuristic. Experimental results on two problem sizes are promising, the produced algorithm is able to find solutions of comparable quality.
