This paper investigates the impact of sequential selection, a concept recently introduced for Evolution Strategies (ESs), that consists in performing the evaluations of the diffe...
We investigate the effects of precision on the efficiency of various local search algorithms on 1-D unimodal functions. We present a (1 + 1)-EA with adaptive step size which fin...

One fundamental task in near-neighbor search as well as other similarity matching efforts is to find a distance function that can efficiently quantify the similarity between two o...
Abstract—Recent years have seen a trend in using graphic processing units (GPU) as accelerators for general-purpose computing. The inexpensive, single-chip, massively parallel ar...
This paper deals with the adaptive variance scaling issue in continuous Estimation of Distribution Algorithms. A phenomenon is discovered that current adaptive variance scaling me...
