We show that the natural evolutionary algorithm for the all-pairs shortest path problem is significantly faster with a crossover operator than without. This is the first theoret...
In designing a state space of possible designs is implied by the representation used and the computational processes that operate on that representation. GAs are a means of effect...
One of the open problems in the area of domain-specific languages is how to make domain-specific language development easier for domain experts not versed in a programming languag...

Starting from some simple observations on a popular selection method in Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs)--tournament selection--we highlight a previously-unknown source of inefficien...
This article describes a new model of probability density function and its use in estimation of distribution algorithms. The new model, the distribution tree, has interesting prope...
