Neutrality: A Necessity for Self-Adaptation
Self-adaptation is used in all main paradigms of evolutionary computation to increase efficiency. We claim that the basis of self-adaptation is the use of neutrality. In the absenc...

The evolutionary computation approach to motif discovery in biological sequences
Finding motifs — patterns of conserved residues — within nucleotide and protein sequences is a key part of understanding function and regulation within biological systems. Thi...

Complexity-preserving simulations among three variants of accepting networks of evolutionary processors
In this paper we consider three variants of accepting networks of evolutionary processors. It is known that two of them are equivalent to Turing machines. We propose here a direct ...

A Survey of Constraint Handling Techniques in Evolutionary Computation Methods
One of the major components of any evolutionary system is the evaluation function. Evaluation functions are used to assign a quality measure for individuals in a population. Where...

Evolutionary Design Calibration
Abstract. Evolutionary methods are now beginning to be used routinely in design applications. However, even with computing speeds growing continuously, for many complex design prob...
