— This paper investigates the role of genotypic search space dimensionality on the behaviour and characteristics of a computational model of embryogeny. By varying genome length,...
Scatter search is an evolutionary method that has been successfully applied to hard optimization problems. The fundamental concepts and principles of the method were first propose...
Embodying robot morphologies evolved in simulation can present serious problems for an engineer when translating simplified simulated mechanisms into working devices, often drawing...
In this paper, we consider multi-objective evolutionary algorithms for the Vertex Cover problem in the context of parameterized complexity. We relate the runtime of our algorithms...
Abstract. One of the most influential factors in the quality of the solutions found by an evolutionary algorithm is the appropriateness of the fitness function. Specifically in ...
