We show how and why using genetic operators that are applied with probabilities that depend on the fitness rank of a genotype or phenotype offers a robust alternative to the Sim...
One problem of propagating the globally fittest individual via neighbourhood evolving in both island model and cellular model of existing parallel genetic algorithms (PGA) is that...
The hybridization of heuristics methods aims at exploring the synergies among stand alone heuristics in order to achieve better results for the optimization problem under study. In...

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....
In this paper we propose to use a distance metric based on user-preferences to efficiently find solutions for many-objective problems. In a user-preference based algorithm a decis...
