A Graphical Model for Evolutionary Optimization
We present a statistical model of empirical optimization that admits the creation of algorithms with explicit and intuitively defined desiderata. Because No Free Lunch theorems di...

Rapid evaluation and evolution of neural models using graphics card hardware
This paper compares three common evolutionary algorithms and our modified GA, a Distributed Adaptive Genetic Algorithm (DAGA). The optimal approach is sought to adapt, in near rea...

Evolutionary Optimization of Functionally Defined Shapes: Case Study of Natural Optical Objects
This paper focuses on an approach to modeling shapes through the use of evolutionary optimization or genetic algorithms for functionally represented geometric objects. This repres...

Extending a Graphic Modeling Language to Support Partial and Evolutionary Specification
The notion of partial and evolutionary specification has gained attention both in research and industry in the last years. While many people regard this just as a process issue, w...

A Utile Function Optimizer
Abstract— We recast the problem of unconstrained continuous evolutionary optimization as inference in a fixed graphical model. This approach allows us to address several pervasi...
