This paper analyzes the behavior of the XCS classifier system on imbalanced datasets. We show that XCS with standard parameter settings is quite robust to considerable class imbal...
The population size in evolutionary computation is a significant parameter affecting computational effort and the ability to successfully evolve solutions. We find that population...
The Baldwin Effect is a very plausible, but unproven, biological theory concerning the power of learning to accelerate evolution. Simple computational models in the 1980’s gave...
Modern VLSI design methodologies and manufacturing technologies are making circuits increasingly fast. The quest for higher circuit performance and integration density stems from f...
Conventional phylogenetic tree estimation methods assume that all sites in a DNA multiple alignment have the same evolutionary history. This assumption is violated in data sets fro...
