Abstract
A first evaluation function calculation unit and a second evaluation function calculation unit calculate a cost function term Eand a penalty function term Pin an evaluation function, respectively. A transition control unit stochastically determines whether to accept any of state transitions, based on a product of a ratio between an inverse temperature βand a penalty factor αand Pand E. An exchange control unit supplies βand αto each annealing unit, βand αhaving been set such that each annealing unit has a different ratio between βand α, receives Eand Pfrom each annealing unit, and exchanges βbetween first and second annealing units among the plurality of annealing units and αbetween the first and second annealing units, in accordance with a probability based on β, α, E, and Pof the first and second annealing units.
