This paper proposes a new crossover operator for searching over discrete probability spaces. The design of the operator is considered in the light of recent theoretical insights i...
A new crossover technique, we named Rank and Proximity Based Crossover (RPC), to improve the speed and quality of solutions in Genetic search, is proposed. In the proposed strategy...
Abstract. We propose an analytic approach to approximate the survival probabilities of schemata under multi-point crossover and obtain its closed form. It gives a convenient way to...
A novel evolutionary approach for the bin packing problem (BPP) is presented. A simple steady-state genetic algorithm is developed that produces results comparable to other approa...
Crossover in Genetic Programming is mostly a destructive operator, generally producing children worse than the parents and occasionally producing those who are better. A recently ...
