Using quotient graphs to model neutrality in evolutionary search
We introduce quotient graphs for modeling neutrality in evolutionary search. We demonstrate that for a variety of evolutionary computing problems, search can be characterized by g...

Incorporating fuzzy knowledge into fitness: multiobjective evolutionary 3D design of process plants
Designing technical plants is a complex and demanding process. It has been shown that the optimization of the simple facility placement problem is already NP-hard. Optimization of...
