Finite domain propagation solving, the basis of constraint programming (CP) solvers, allows building very high-level models of problems, and using highly specific inference encapsu...
This paper analyses the reliability of confidence intervals for Koza's computational effort statistic. First, we conclude that dependence between the observed minimum generat...
This paper introduces a function that increases the amount of neutrality (inactive code in Genetic Programming) for the Artificial Ant Problem. The objective of this approach is t...
To complement standard fitness functions, we propose "Fitness Importance" (FI) as a novel meta-heuristic for online learning systems. We define FI and show how it can be...
We describe the first steps in the adoption of Shape Grammars with Grammatical Evolution for application in Evolutionary Design. Combining the concepts of Shape Grammars and Genet...
