Abstract. In this paper we propose a novel hybrid (GA/PSO) algorithm, Breeding Swarm, combining the strengths of particle swarm optimization with genetic algorithms. The hybrid alg...
Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are a search and optimization technique based on the mechanism of evolution. Recently, another sort of population-based optimization method called Estimat...
t] Based on the mutation matrix formalism and past statistics of genetic algorithm, a Markov Chain transition probability matrix is introduced to provide a guided search for comple...
Energy minimization algorithms for bio-molecular systems are critical to applications such as the prediction of protein folding. Conventional energy minimization methods such as th...

We propose a novel algorithm called GA-MDP for solving the frequency assigment problem. GA-MDP inherits the spirit of genetic algorithms with an adaptation of Markov Decision Proc...
