On the convergence of a factorized distribution algorithm with truncation selection
nical Abstract Optimization is to find the "best" solution to a problem where the quality of a solution can be measured by a given criterion. Estimation of Distribution A...

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...

Asymptotical Convergence Rates of Simple Evolutionary Algorithms under Factorizing Mutation Distributions
Abstract. The standard choice for mutating an individual of an evolutionary algorithm with continuous variables is the normal distribution. It is shown that there is a broad class ...

Hybrid Influence Diagrams Using Mixtures of Truncated Exponentials
Mixtures of truncated exponentials (MTE) potentials are an alternative to discretization for representing continuous chance variables in influence diagrams. Also, MTE potentials c...
