Efficiently evolving programs through the search for novelty
A significant challenge in genetic programming is premature convergence to local optima, which often prevents evolution from solving problems. This paper introduces to genetic pro...

A Hybrid GRASP - Evolutionary Algorithm Approach to Golomb Ruler Search
We consider the problem of finding small Golomb rulers, a hard combinatorial optimization task. This problem is here tackled by means of a hybrid evolutionary algorithm (EA). This...
