Abstract. Population size is a critical parameter that affects the performance of an Evolutionary Computation model. A variable population size scheme is considered potentially be...
In this paper we examine the effects of single node mutations on trees evolved via genetic programming. The results show that neutral mutations are less likely for nodes nearer th...
It is part of the traditional lore of genetic algorithms that low mutation rates lead to efficient search of the solution space, while high mutation rates result in diffusion of s...
Hereditary Repulsion (HR) is a selection method coupled with a fitness constraint that substantially improves the performance and consistency of evolutionary algorithms. This als...
Background: FREGENE simulates sequence-level data over large genomic regions in large populations. Because, unlike coalescent simulators, it works forwards through time, it allows...
