Abstract. We present a new method for proving lower bounds in evolutionary computation based on fitness-level arguments and an additional condition on transition probabilities bet...
Recombination is an important evolutionary mechanism responsible for the genetic diversity in humans and other organisms. Recently, there has been extensive research on understandi...
This paper focuses on the computation time of evolutionary algorithms. First, some exact expressions of the mean first hitting times of general evolutionary algorithms in finite...
Abstract. This paper addresses the informational asymmetry for constructing an ultrametric evolutionary tree from upper and lower bounds on pairwise distances between n given speci...
