Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are very commonly used as function optimizers, basically due to their search capability. A number of different serial and parallel versions of GA exist. ...
Background: Ultraconserved elements are nucleotide or protein sequences with 100% identity (no mismatches, insertions, or deletions) in the same organism or between two or more or...
Abstract: Spatial data mining algorithms heavily depend on the efficient processing of neighborhood relations since the neighbors of many objects have to be investigated in a singl...

The correct choice of an evolutionary algorithm, a genetic representation for the problem being solved (as well as their associated variation operators) and the appropriate values...
Crowding is a technique used in genetic algorithms to preserve diversity in the population and to prevent premature convergence to local optima. It consists of pairing each offsp...
