We introduce a new genetic operator, Reduction, that rectifies decision trees not correct syntactically and at the same time removes the redundant sections within, while preservin...
Symbiosis, the collaboration of multiple organisms from different species, is common in nature. A related phenomenon, symbiogenesis, the creation of new species through the genetic...
The authors employ multiple crossovers as a novel natural extension to crossovers as a mixing operator. They use this as a framework to explore the ideas of code growth. Empirical...

Given a collection of terminals, each with a demand, a collection of concentrators, each with a capacity, and costs of connecting the terminals to the concentrators, the terminal ...
We deepen the theoretical analysis of the genetic algorithm for the all-pairs shortest path problem proposed by Doerr, Happ and Klein (GECCO 2008). We show that the growth of the ...
