Robustness in cooperative coevolution
Though recent analysis of traditional cooperative coevolutionary algorithms (CCEAs) casts doubt on their suitability for static optimization tasks, our experience is that the algo...

Alternative evolutionary algorithms for evolving programs: evolution strategies and steady state GP
In contrast with the diverse array of genetic algorithms, the Genetic Programming (GP) paradigm is usually applied in a relatively uniform manner. Heuristics have developed over t...

On-line evolutionary computation for reinforcement learning in stochastic domains
In reinforcement learning, an agent interacting with its environment strives to learn a policy that specifies, for each state it may encounter, what action to take. Evolutionary c...

Credit assignment in adaptive evolutionary algorithms
In this paper, a new method for assigning credit to search operators is presented. Starting with the principle of optimizing search bias, search operators are selected based on an...

Use of statistical outlier detection method in adaptive evolutionary algorithms
In this paper, the issue of adapting probabilities for Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) search operators is revisited. A framework is devised for distinguishing between measurements of...
