In this paper we describe an improvement of an entropy-based diversity preservation approach for evolutionary algorithms. This approach exploits the information contained not only...
Abstract. We describe and critique the convergence properties of filterbased evolutionary pattern search algorithms (F-EPSAs). F-EPSAs implicitly use a filter to perform a multi-...
Abstract. We present a new method for proving lower bounds in evolutionary computation based on fitness-level arguments and an additional condition on transition probabilities bet...
A meta-GA (GA within a GA) is used to investigate evolving the parameter settings of genetic operators for genetic and evolutionary algorithms (GEA) in the hope of creating a self...

Abstract. A protein is a linear chain of amino acids that folds into a unique functional structure, called its native state. In this state, proteins show repeated substructures lik...
