Abstract. Training neural networks is a complex task of great importance in the supervised learning field of research. In this work we tackle this problem with five algorithms, a...
Deciding the appropriate population size and number of islands for distributed island-model genetic algorithms is often critical to the algorithm’s success. This paper outlines ...
A wide range of niching techniques have been investigated in evolutionary and genetic algorithms. In this article, we focus on niching using crowding techniques in the context of ...
Many automatically-synthesized programs have, like their hand-made counterparts, numerical parameters that need to be set properly before they can show an acceptable performance. H...
Abstract. Spatially structured population models improve the performance of genetic algorithms by assisting the selection scheme in maintaining diversity. A significant concern wi...
