Mirrored sampling in evolution strategies with weighted recombination
This paper introduces mirrored sampling into evolution strategies (ESs) with weighted multi-recombination. Two further heuristics are introduced: pairwise selection selects at mos...

Improving Knowledge-Based System Performance by Reordering Rule Sequences
In this paper, we argue that KBS validation should not be limited to testing functional properties of the system, such as its input - output behavior, but must also address its dy...

Using Clustering Techniques to Improve the Performance of a Multi-objective Particle Swarm Optimizer
In this paper, we present an extension of the heuristic called “particle swarm optimization” (PSO) that is able to deal with multiobjective optimization problems. Our approach ...

Two adaptive mutation operators for optima tracking in dynamic optimization problems with evolution strategies
The dynamic optimization problem concerns finding an optimum in a changing environment. In the tracking problem, the optimizer should be able to follow the optimum’s changes ov...

Evolution of reward functions for reinforcement learning
The reward functions that drive reinforcement learning systems are generally derived directly from the descriptions of the problems that the systems are being used to solve. In so...
