General Lower Bounds for the Running Time of Evolutionary Algorithms
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...

On Properties of the Minimum Entropy Sub-tree to Compute Lower Bounds on the Partition Function
— Computing the partition function and the marginals of a global probability distribution are two important issues in any probabilistic inference problem. In a previous work, we ...
