A Survey on Chromosomal Structures and Operators for Exploiting Topological Linkages of Genes
Abstract. The building block hypothesis implies that the epistatic property of a given problem must be connected well to the linkage property of the employed representation and cro...

Mask functions for the symbolic modeling of epistasis using genetic programming
The study of common, complex multifactorial diseases in genetic epidemiology is complicated by nonlinearity in the genotype-to-phenotype mapping relationship that is due, in part,...

Tightness Time for the Linkage Learning Genetic Algorithm
Abstract. This paper develops a model for tightness time, linkage learning time for a single building block, in the linkage learning genetic algorithm (LLGA). First, the existing m...

Improving the Performance of a Genetic Algorithm Using a Variable-Reordering Algorithm
Genetic algorithms have been successfully applied to many difficult problems but there have been some disappointing results as well. In these cases the choice of the internal repre...

A parameter-less genetic algorithm
From the user’s point of view, setting the parameters of a genetic algorithm (GA) is far from a trivial task. Moreover, the user is typically not interested in population sizes,...
