CrossNet: a framework for crossover with network-based chromosomal representations
We propose a new class of crossover operators for genetic algorithms (CrossNet) which use a network-based (or graphbased) chromosomal representation. We designed CrossNet with the...

How generative encodings fare on less regular problems
Generative representations allow the reuse of code and thus facilitate the evolution of repeated phenotypic themes or modules. It has been shown that generative representations pe...

Elitism reduces bloat in genetic programming
Elitism is commonly used in generational GP to ensure that the best individuals discovered in a generation are not lost, and are made available for possible further improvements t...

Optimizing hierarchical menus by genetic algorithm and simulated annealing
Hierarchical menus are now ubiquitous. The performance of the menu depends on many factors: structure, layout, colors and so on. There has been extensive research on novel menus, ...

Aiming for a theoretically tractable CSA variant by means of empirical investigations
Evolution Strategies (ES) for black-box optimization of a function f : Rn → R are investigated. Namely, we consider the cumulative step-size adaptation (CSA) for the variance of...
