This paper investigates the impact of sequential selection, a concept recently introduced for Evolution Strategies (ESs), that consists in performing the evaluations of the diffe...
The family of natural evolution strategies (NES) offers a principled approach to real-valued evolutionary optimization by following the natural gradient of the expected fitness....

In many text-processing applications, we would like shapes that expand (or shrink) in size to fit their textual content. We address how to efficiently compute the minimum size fo...
Initial results have been achieved for automatic synthesis of MEMS system-level lumped parameter models using genetic programming and bond graphs. This paper first discusses the ne...

The problem of model selection for support vector machines (SVMs) is considered. We propose an evolutionary approach to determine multiple SVM hyperparameters: The covariance matr...
