Convergence analysis of quantum-inspired genetic algorithms with the population of a single individual
In this paper, the Quantum-inspired Genetic Algorithms with the population of a single individual are formalized by a Markov chain model using a single and the stored best individ...

Neuro-evolution for a gathering and collective construction task
In this paper we apply three Neuro-Evolution (NE) methods as controller design approaches in a collective behavior task. These NE methods are Enforced Sub-Populations, MultiAgent ...

Rank based variation operators for genetic algorithms
We show how and why using genetic operators that are applied with probabilities that depend on the fitness rank of a genotype or phenotype offers a robust alternative to the Sim...

Crossover can provably be useful in evolutionary computation
We show that the natural evolutionary algorithm for the all-pairs shortest path problem is significantly faster with a crossover operator than without. This is the first theoret...

Particle filtering with particle swarm optimization in systems with multiplicative noise
We propose a Particle Filter model that incorporates Particle Swarm Optimization for predicting systems with multiplicative noise. The proposed model employs a conventional multio...
