Learning noise
In this paper we propose a genetic programming approach to learning stochastic models with unsymmetrical noise distributions. Most learning algorithms try to learn from noisy data...

Environment as a spatial constraint on the growth of structural form
We explore the use of the developmental environment as a spatial constraint on a model of Artificial Embryogeny, applied to the growth of structural forms. A Deva model is used t...

Solving the MAXSAT problem using a multivariate EDA based on Markov networks
Markov Networks (also known as Markov Random Fields) have been proposed as a new approach to probabilistic modelling in Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs). An EDA employ...

Quick-and-dirty ant colony optimization
Ant colony optimization (ACO) is a well known metaheuristic. In the literature it has been used for tackling many optimization problems. Often, ACO is hybridized with a local sear...
