Randomization is an efficient tool for global optimization. We here define a method which keeps : – the order 0 of evolutionary algorithms (no gradient) ; – the stochastic as...
Aligning multiple DNA or protein sequences is a fundamental step in the analyses of phylogeny, homology and molecular structure. Heuristic algorithms are applied because optimal mu...
Designing drugs is a current problem in the pharmaceutical research. By designing a drug we mean to choose some variables of drug formulation (inputs), for obtaining optimal charac...
This paper describes a new FPGA implementation of a system for evolutionary image filter design. Three parallel search algorithms are compared. An optimal mutation rate and the q...
The Busy Beaver is an interesting theoretical problem proposed by Rado in 1962. In this paper we propose an evolutionary approach to this problem. We will focus on the representati...
