Learning and anticipation in online dynamic optimization with evolutionary algorithms: the stochastic case
The focus of this paper is on how to design evolutionary algorithms (EAs) for solving stochastic dynamic optimization problems online, i.e. as time goes by. For a proper design, t...

Learning, anticipation and time-deception in evolutionary online dynamic optimization
In this paper we focus on an important source of problem– difficulty in (online) dynamic optimization problems that has so far received significantly less attention than the tr...

On-line evolutionary computation for reinforcement learning in stochastic domains
In reinforcement learning, an agent interacting with its environment strives to learn a policy that specifies, for each state it may encounter, what action to take. Evolutionary c...

Adaptive Subgradient Methods for Online Learning and Stochastic Optimization
We present a new family of subgradient methods that dynamically incorporate knowledge of the geometry of the data observed in earlier iterations to perform more informative gradie...

The Quantitative Law of Effect is a Robust Emergent Property of an Evolutionary Algorithm for Reinforcement Learning
An evolutionary reinforcement-learning algorithm, the operation of which was not associated with an optimality condition, was instantiated in an artificial organism. The algorithm ...
