Automated program repair through the evolution of assembly code
A method is described for automatically repairing legacy software at the assembly code level using evolutionary computation. The technique is demonstrated on Java byte code and x8...

Dynamic populations in genetic algorithms
Biological populations are dynamic in both space and time, that is, the population size of a species fluctuates across their habitats over time. There are rarely any static or fix...

Learnable Evolution Model: Evolutionary Processes Guided by Machine Learning
A new class of evolutionary computation processes is presented, called Learnable Evolution Model or LEM. In contrast to Darwinian-type evolution that relies on mutation, recombinat...

Neutrality: A Necessity for Self-Adaptation
Self-adaptation is used in all main paradigms of evolutionary computation to increase efficiency. We claim that the basis of self-adaptation is the use of neutrality. In the absenc...
