Fitness landscape analysis for evolutionary non-photorealistic rendering
The best evolutionary approach can be a difficult problem. In this work we have investigated two evolutionary representations to evolve non-photorealistic renderings: a variable-le...

Dispatching rules for production scheduling: A hyper-heuristic landscape analysis
— Hyper-heuristics or “heuristics to chose heuristics” are an emergent search methodology that seeks to automate the process of selecting or combining simpler heuristics in o...

Exploring the search space of quantum programs
Here we present a first study of search spaces and fitness landscapes in the context of the evolution of quantum programs. We consider small instances of the Deutsch-Jozsa proble...

Modeling the Search Landscape of Metaheuristic Software Clustering Algorithms
Abstract. Software clustering techniques are useful for extracting architectural information about a system directly from its source code structure. This paper starts by examining ...

Barriers and local minima in energy landscapes of stochastic local search
: A local search algorithm operating on an instance of a Boolean constraint satisfaction problem (in particular, k-SAT) can be viewed as a stochastic process traversing successive ...
