When an optimization problem is encoded using genetic algorithms, one must address issues of population size, crossover and mutation operators and probabilities, stopping criteria...
Abstract. When Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are employed in multimodal function optimization, engineering and machine learning, identifying multiple peaks and maintaining subpopulation...
We introduce a new class of compiler heuristics: hybrid optimizations. Hybrid optimizations choose dynamically at compile time which optimization algorithm to apply from a set of d...

In this paper we discuss a general framework for feature selection based on nonparametric statistics. The three stage approach we propose is based on the assumption that the avail...
Abstract. We discuss the problem of model selection in Genetic Programming using the framework provided by Statistical Learning Theory, i.e. Vapnik-Chervonenkis theory (VC). We pre...
