Abstract— Many of the fundamental coding problems can be represented as graph problems. These problems are often intrinsically difficult and unsolved even if the code length is ...
NK models provide a family of tunably rugged fitness landscapes used in a wide range of evolutionary computation studies. It is well known that the average height of local optima...

Abstract. A formal, representation-independent form of a memetic algorithm-a genetic algorithm incorporating local search--is introduced. A generalisedform of N-point crossover is ...
Abstract— For solving multimodal problems by means of evolutionary algorithms, one often resorts to multistarts or niching methods. The latter approach the question: ‘What is e...
Credit institutions are seldom faced with problems dealing with single objectives. Often, decisions involving optimizing two or more competing goals simultaneously need to be made...
