Using a set of model landscapes we examine how different mutation rates affect different search metrics. We show that very universal heuristics, such as 1/N and the error threshol...
- Using the Darwin2k development software, a genetic algorithm (GA) was used to design and optimize a pipecrawling robot for parameters such as mass, power consumption, and joint e...
This paper presents a novel framework for thyroid ultrasound image segmentation that aims to accurately delineate thyroid nodules. This framework, named GA-VBAC incorporates a leve...

Cellular genetic algorithms (cGAs) are mainly characterized by their spatially decentralized population, in which individuals can only interact with their neighbors. In this work,...
We propose a variation of the standard genetic algorithm that incorporates social interaction between the individuals in the population. Our goal is to understand the evolutionary...
