Abstract— Over the last years, interest in hybrid metaheuristics has risen considerably in the field of optimization. Combinations of methods such as evolutionary algorithms and...
t] Based on the mutation matrix formalism and past statistics of genetic algorithm, a Markov Chain transition probability matrix is introduced to provide a guided search for comple...
Abstract. We describe and critique the convergence properties of filterbased evolutionary pattern search algorithms (F-EPSAs). F-EPSAs implicitly use a filter to perform a multi-...
Abstract: Although a quantum state requires exponentially many classical bits to describe, the laws of quantum mechanics impose severe restrictions on how that state can be accesse...
To successfully search multiple coadaptive subcomponents in a solution, we developed a novel cooperative evolutionary algorithm based on a new computational multilevel selection f...
