Error Thresholds in Genetic Algorithms
The error threshold of replication is an important notion of the quasispecies evolution model; it is a critical mutation rate (error rate) beyond which structures obtained by an e...

Finding Building Blocks through Eigenstructure Adaptation
A fundamental aspect of many evolutionary approaches to synthesis of complex systems is the need to compose atomic elements into useful higher-level building blocks. However, the ...

A hybrid approach to parameter tuning in genetic algorithms
Abstract- Choosing the best parameter setting is a wellknown important and challenging task in Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs). As one of the earliest parameter tuning techniques, th...

Mutation rates of the (1+1)-EA on pseudo-boolean functions of bounded epistasis
When the epistasis of the fitness function is bounded by a constant, we show that the expected fitness of an offspring of the (1+1)-EA can be efficiently computed for any point...
