A rigorous view on neutrality
Abstract—Motivated by neutrality observed in natural evolution often redundant encodings are used in evolutionary algorithms. Many experimental studies have been carried out on t...

Neutral Emergence and Coarse Graining
We introduce the concept of neutral emergence (defined by analogy to an information theoretic view of neutral evolution), and discuss how it might be used in the engineering of ro...

Rigorous Analyses for the Combination of Ant Colony Optimization and Local Search
Abstract. Ant colony optimization (ACO) is a metaheuristic that produces good results for a wide range of combinatorial optimization problems. Often such successful applications us...
