This paper addresses the Microarray Gene Ordering problem. It consists in ordering a set of genes, grouping together the ones with similar behavior. This behavior can be measured ...
— Our theoretical understanding of island models (IMs) is much worse than of single-population evolutionary algorithms (EAs). As a consequence there is relatively little guidance...
Sequencing problems have to be solved very often in VLSI CAD. To obtain results of high quality, Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) have been successfully applied in many cases. Howeve...
Galled trees, directed acyclic graphs that model evolutionary histories with isolated hybridization events, have become very popular due to both their biological significance and ...
Motivated by parallel optimization, we experiment EDA-like adaptation-rules in the case of λ large. The rule we use, essentially based on estimation of multivariate normal algorit...
