Probing for limits to building block mixing with a tunably-difficult problem for genetic programming
This paper describes a tunably-difficult problem for genetic programming (GP) that probes for limits to building block mixing and assembly. The existence of such a problem can be ...

Improving GA search reliability using maximal hyper-rectangle analysis
In Genetic algorithms it is not easy to evaluate the confidence level in whether a GA run may have missed a complete area of good points, and whether the global optimum was found....
