Evolutionary Testing (ET) has been shown to be very successful in testing real world applications [16]. However, it has been pointed out [11], that further research is necessary if...
Abstract. This paper describes the application of four evolutionary algorithms to the pruning of neural networks used in classification problems. Besides of a simple genetic algor...
Abstract. There are conflicting reports over whether multiple independent runs of genetic algorithms (GAs) with small populations can reach solutions of higher quality or can fin...
Abstract. To improve the efficiency of the currently known evolutionary algorithms, we have proposed two complementary efficiency speed-up strategies in our previous research work ...
Abstract. Theoretical and empirical evidence exists that the hierarchical Bayesian optimization algorithm (hBOA) can solve challenging hierarchical problems and anything easier. Th...
