This paper presents a problem-independent framework that uni es various mechanisms for solving discrete constrained nonlinear programming (NLP) problems whose functions are not ne...
This paper describes initial testing of a novel idea to combine a CGP with an EDA. In recent work a new improved crossover technique was successfully applied to a CGP. To implemen...
Abstract. This paper presents an empirical study of population diversity measure and adaptive control of diversity in the context of a permutation-based algorithm for Traveling Sal...
Genetic Algorithms (GAs) have been known to be robust for search and optimization problems. Image registration can take advantage of the robustness of GAs in finding best transform...
