Abstract—Dynamic Demes is a new method for the parallelisation of evolutionary algorithms. It was derived as a combination of two other parallelisation algorithms: the master-sla...
The application of network analysis to emergent mating topologies in spatially structured genetic algorithms is presented in this preliminary study as a framework for inferring ev...
This paper describes and analyzes the aggregation pheromone system (APS) algorithm, which extends ant colony optimization (ACO) to continuous domains. APS uses the collective behav...
Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) has become quite popular in recent years. In contrast to many successful applications, the theoretical foundation of this randomized search heuristic...
This paper introduces Dafo, a new multi-agent framework for evolutionary optimization relying on a competitive coevolutionary genetic algorithm, aka LCGA (Loosely Coupled Genetic A...
