This paper focuses on the computation time of evolutionary algorithms. First, some exact expressions of the mean first hitting times of general evolutionary algorithms in finite...
Performance evaluation of complex systems is a critical issue and bounds computation provides confidence about service quality, reliability, etc. of such systems. The stochastic ...
The expected first hitting time is an important issue in theoretical analyses of evolutionary algorithms since it implies the average computational time complexity. In this paper,...
In the longest common subsequence problem the task is to find the longest sequence of letters that can be found as subsequence in all members of a given finite set of sequences....
It is typical for the EA community that theory follows experiments. Most theoretical approaches use some model of the considered evolutionary algorithm (EA) but there is also some ...
