— If a population of programs evolved not for a few hundred generations but for a few hundred thousand or more, could it generate more interesting behaviours and tackle more comp...
—Genetic algorithm (GA) is too dependent on the initial population and a lack of local search ability. In this paper, an improved greedy genetic algorithm (IGAA) is proposed to o...
Abstract. This paper presents a new Memetic Algorithm (MA) designed to compute near-optimal solutions for the covering array construction problem. It incorporates several distingui...
— The subject of the present investigation is Population-based Adaptive Systems (PAS), as implemented in the NEW TIES platform. In many existing PASs two adaptation mechanisms ar...
A genetic algorithm has been developed in order to find the global minimum of platinum-palladium nanoalloy clusters. The effect of biasing the initial population and predating sp...
