Comparing neural networks and Kriging for fitness approximation in evolutionary optimization
Neural networks and the Kriging method are compared for constructing £tness approximation models in evolutionary optimization algorithms. The two models are applied in an identica...

On the Impact of Mutation-Selection Balance on the Runtime of Evolutionary Algorithms
The interplay between the mutation operator and the selection mechanism plays a fundamental role in the behaviour of evolutionary algorithms (EAs). However, this interplay is stil...

Backward-chaining evolutionary algorithms
Starting from some simple observations on a popular selection method in Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs)--tournament selection--we highlight a previously-unknown source of inefficien...

Multi-task evolutionary shaping without pre-specified representations
Shaping functions can be used in multi-task reinforcement learning (RL) to incorporate knowledge from previously experienced tasks to speed up learning on a new task. So far, rese...
