Strong recombination, weak selection, and mutation
We show that there are unimodal fitness functions and genetic algorithm (GA) parameter settings where the GA, when initialized with a random population, will not move close to the...

Predictive Models Using Fitness Distributions of Genetic Operators
An important goal of the theory of genetic algorithms is to build predictive models of how well genetic algorithms are expected to perform, given a representation, a fitness lands...

Evolution of Fitness Functions to Improve Heuristic Performance
In this paper we introduce the variable fitness function which can be used to control the search direction of any search based optimisation heuristic where more than one objective ...

Fractional dynamic fitness functions for GA-based circuit design
This paper proposes and analyses the performance of a Genetic Algorithm (GA) using two new concepts, namely a static fitness function including a discontinuity measure and a fract...
