The Evolution of Evolutionary Software: Intelligent Rhythm Generation in Kinetic Engine
This paper presents an evolutionary music software system that generates complex rhythmic polyphony in performance. A population of rhythms is derived from analysis of source mater...

An empirical analysis of the grouping genetic algorithm: the timetabling case
A grouping genetic algorithm (GGA) for the university course timetabling problem is outlined. We propose six different fitness functions, all sharing the same common goal, and look...

A Hierarchical Gene-Set Genetic Algorithm
In this paper, gene sets, instead of individual genes, are used in the genetic process to speed up convergence. A gene-set mutation operator is proposed, which can make several nei...

Theoretical comparisons of search dynamics of genetic algorithms and evolution strategies
Genetic algorithms (GAs) and evolution strategies (ESs) are two widely used evolutionary algorithms. The main differences between GAs and ESs lie in their representations and varia...

Self-similar Functions and Population Protocols: A Characterization and a Comparison
Chandy et al. proposed the methodology of “self-similar algorithms” for distributed computation in dynamic environments. We further characterize the class of functions computab...
