A discrete differential evolution algorithm for the permutation flowshop scheduling problem
In this paper, a novel discrete differential evolution (DDE) algorithm is presented to solve the permutation flowhop scheduling problem with the makespan criterion. The DDE algori...

Fitness-AUC bandit adaptive strategy selection vs. the probability matching one within differential evolution: an empirical comp
The choice of which of the available strategies should be used within the Differential Evolution algorithm for a given problem is not trivial, besides being problem-dependent and...

Designing better fitness functions for automated program repair
Evolutionary methods have been used to repair programs automatically, with promising results. However, the fitness function used to achieve these results was based on a few simpl...

A Kernighan-Lin Local Improvement Heuristic That Solves Some Hard Problems in Genetic Algorithms
We present a Kernighan-Lin style local improvement heuristic for genetic algorithms. We analyze the run-time cost of the heuristic. We demonstrate through experiments that the heur...

Fitting multi-planet transit models to photometric time-data series by evolution strategies
In this paper we present the application of an evolution strategy to the problem of detecting multi-planet transit events in photometric time-data series. Planetary transits occur...
