The study of fitness landscapes is important for increasing our understanding of local-search based heuristics and evolutionary algorithms. The number of acceptable solutions in the landscape is a crucial factor in measuring the difficulty of combinatorial optimization and decision problems. This paper estimates this number from statistics on the number of repetitions in the sample history of a search. The approach is applied to the problem of counting the number of satisfying solutions in random and structured SAT instances. © Springer-Verlag 2004.
