Schema Theory for Genetic Programming with One-Point Crossover and Point Mutation
In this paper we first review the main results obtained in the theory of schemata in Genetic Programming (GP) emphasising their strengths and weaknesses. Then we propose a new, s...

The Schema Theorem and Price's Theorem
Holland's Schema Theorem is widely taken to be the foundation for explanations of the power of genetic algorithms (GAs). Yet some dissent has been expressed as to its implica...

Schemata as Building Blocks: Does Size Matter?
We analyze the schema theorem and the building block hypothesis using a recently derived, exact schemata evolution equation. We derive a new schema theorem based on the concept of...

Exact Schema Theorems for GP with One-Point and Standard Crossover Operating on Linear Structures and Their Application to the S
In this paper, firstly we specialise the exact GP schema theorem for one-point crossover to the case of linear structures of variable length, for example binary strings or program...

General Schema Theory for Genetic Programming with Subtree-Swapping Crossover
Abstract. In this paper a new, general and exact schema theory for genetic programming is presented. The theory includes a microscopic schema theorem applicable to crossover operat...

Schema Analysis of Average Fitness in Multiplicative Landscape
By applying the schema theorem, we study the effects of crossover in Genetic Algorithms with the multiplicative fitness function. On this landscape, the analytical expression of ...

Three interconnected parameters for genetic algorithms
When an optimization problem is encoded using genetic algorithms, one must address issues of population size, crossover and mutation operators and probabilities, stopping criteria...
