— This paper presents Evolutionary Optimization Tool (Evoptool), an optimization toolkit that implements a set of meta-heuristics based on the Evolutionary Computation paradigm. ...
In this paper, we study the conditions in which the (1+1)-EA compares favorably to other evolutionary algorithms (EAs) in terms of fitness function distribution at given iteration...
Abstract. Bucket elimination (BE) is an exact technique based on variable elimination, commonly used for solving constraint satisfaction problems. We consider the hybridization of ...
Ensuring building-block (BB) mixing is critical to the success of genetic and evolutionary algorithms. This study develops facetwise models to predict the BB mixing time and the po...
This paper looks upon the standard genetic algorithm as an artificial self-organizing process. With the purpose to provide concepts that make the algorithm more open for scalabili...
