The Second Harmonic Generation (SHG), a process that turns out to be a good test case in the physics lab, can also be considered as a fairly simple theoretical test function for g...
Recently, advances have been made in continuous, normal– distribution–based Estimation–of–Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) by scaling the variance up from the maximum–like...
We show how a random mutation hill climber that does multilevel selection utilizes transposition to escape local optima on the discrete Hierarchical-If-And-Only-If (HIFF) problem....
There are many innovative proposals introduced in the literature under the evolutionary computation field, from which estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs) is one of them....

Recent research into single–objective continuous Estimation– of–Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) has shown that when maximum–likelihood estimations are used for parametric d...
