Genetic algorithms (GAs) have recently become very popular by solving combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper, we propose an extension of the hybrid genetic algorithm f...
This contribution proposes an enhanced and generic selection model for Genetic Algorithms (GAs) and Genetic Programming (GP) which is able to preserve the alleles which are part o...

The three mechanisms of crossover are transmission, assortment, and respect. Of these three mechanisms, assortment (i.e. recombination) is traditionally viewed as the primary feat...
This paper introduces a multiagent optimization algorithm inspired by the collective behavior of social insects. In our method, each agent encodes a possible solution of the probl...
