The role of diverse populations in phylogenetic analysis
The most popular approaches for reconstructing phylogenetic trees attempt to solve NP-hard optimization criteria such as maximum parsimony (MP). Currently, the bestperforming heur...

A complete distributed constraint optimization method for non-traditional pseudotree arrangements
Distributed Constraint Optimization (DCOP) is a general framework that can model complex problems in multi-agent systems. Several current algorithms that solve general DCOP instan...

Optimizing through Co-evolutionary Avalanches
Abstract. We explore a new general-purpose heuristic for nding highquality solutions to hard optimization problems. The method, called extremal optimization, is inspired by self-or...

How an optimal observer can collapse the search space
Many metaheuristics have difficulty exploring their search space comprehensively. Exploration time and efficiency are highly dependent on the size and the ruggedness of the search...

Effects of the use of non-geometric binary crossover on evolutionary multiobjective optimization
In the design of evolutionary multiobjective optimization (EMO) algorithms, it is important to strike a balance between diversity and convergence. Traditional mask-based crossover...
