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...
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...
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 ...

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...
Abstract. The paper outlines an experiment conducted in two different academic environments, in which FIT tests were used as a functional requirements specification. Common challen...
