Self-adaptation of the mutation strengths is a powerful mechanism in evolution strategies (ES), but it can fail. As a consequence premature convergence or ending up in a local opt...
In the field of medicine it is of vital importance to accurately predict the presence of a disease (diagnostic prediction) or the future occurrence of a certain event (prognostic...
In this paper, we address the problem of finding gene regulatory networks from experimental DNA microarray data. The problem often is multi-modal and therefore appropriate optimi...

In this work we provide empirical evidence that shows how a variable-length genetic algorithm (GA) can naturally evolve shorter average size populations. This reduction in chromos...
Embedded Cartesian Genetic Programming (ECGP) is a form of the graph based Cartesian Genetic Programming (CGP) in which modules are automatically acquired and evolved. In this pap...
