Another investigation on tournament selection: modelling and visualisation
Tournament selection has been widely used and studied in evolutionary algorithms. To supplement the study of tournament selection, this paper provides several models describing th...

Exploring selection mechanisms for an agent-based distributed evolutionary algorithm
In this paper we propose an agent-based model of evolutionary algorithms (EAs) which extends seamlessly from concurrent single-host to distributed multi-host installations. Since ...

The Crowding Approach to Niching in Genetic Algorithms
A wide range of niching techniques have been investigated in evolutionary and genetic algorithms. In this article, we focus on niching using crowding techniques in the context of ...

Convergence Models of Genetic Algorithm Selection Schemes
We discuss the use of normal distribution theory as a tool to model the convergence characteristics of di erent GA selection schemes. The models predict the proportion of optimal a...
