Search based optimization techniques have been applied to structural software test data generation since 1992, with a recent upsurge in interest and activity within this area. How...
The crossover bias theory for bloat [18] is a recent result which predicts that bloat is caused by the sampling of short, unfit programs. This theory is clear and simple, but it ...

This paper gives a theoretical and empirical analysis of the time complexity of genetic algorithms (GAs) on problems with exponentially scaled building blocks. It is important to ...

In this paper, we propose to apply sparse canonical correlation analysis (sparse CCA) to an important genome-wide association study problem, eQTL mapping. Existing sparse CCA mode...
Crowding is a technique used in genetic algorithms to preserve diversity in the population and to prevent premature convergence to local optima. It consists of pairing each offsp...
