Abstract— Directional biases are evident in many benchmarking problems for real-valued global optimisation, as well as many of the evolutionary and allied algorithms that have be...
Abstract— The Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is a robust stochastic evolutionary computation technique based on the movement and intelligence of swarms. This paper p...
— Deceptive problems are a class of challenging problems for conventional genetic algorithms (GAs), which usually mislead the search to some local optima rather than the global o...

— Recently it has been proved that the (1+1)-EA produces poor worst-case approximations for the vertex cover problem. In this paper the result is extended to the (1+λ)-EA by pro...
