A Multiobjective Algorithm for Redistricting

Redistricting is the redrawing of the boundaries of legislative districts for electoral purposes in such a way that thegenerated districts fulfill federal and state requirements such as contiguity, population equality and compactness. Inthis paper we solve the problem by means of a single objective...
