This paper describes a new simple operator for Evolutionary Algorithms (EA) to climb ridged landscapes. Categories and Subject Descriptors: I.2.8 [Computing Methodologies]: Proble...
The fundamental dichotomy in evolutionary algorithms is that between exploration and exploitation. Recently, several algorithms [8, 9, 14, 16, 17, 20] have been introduced that gu...
Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique has proved its ability to deal with very complicated optimization and search problems. Several variants of the original algorithm have b...
In this paper, a new method for assigning credit to search operators is presented. Starting with the principle of optimizing search bias, search operators are selected based on an...
We present new and novel insights into the behavior of two maximum parsimony heuristics for building evolutionary trees of different sizes. First, our results show that the heuris...
