The role of diverse populations in phylogenetic analysis
The most popular approaches for reconstructing phylogenetic trees attempt to solve NP-hard optimization criteria such as maximum parsimony (MP). Currently, the bestperforming heur...

Diversity Control and Multi-Parent Recombination for Evolutionary Graph Coloring Algorithms
We present a hybrid evolutionary algorithm for the graph coloring problem (Evocol). Evocol is based on two simple-but-effective ideas. First, we use an enhanced crossover that col...
