Abstract- Usually the offspring-parent fitness correlation is used to visualize and analyze some caracteristics of fitness landscapes such as evolvability. In this paper, we intr...
A system composed of multiple interacting components is capable of responding to contextual information and producing a higher range of non-linear responses to stimuli compared to...
Baldwin's classic hypothesis states that behavioral plasticity can speed evolution by (a) smoothing the fitness landscape and (b) indirect genetic assimilation of acquired cha...
We focus on the Golomb ruler problem, a hard constrained combinatorial optimization problem. Two alternative encodings are considered, one based on the direct representation of sol...
This paper introduces the concept of fitness cloud as an alternative way to visualize and analyze search spaces than given by the geographic notion of fitness landscape. It is ar...
