Local search (LS) algorithms are among the most powerful techniques for solving computationally hard problems in combinatorial optimization. These algorithms could be viewed as &q...
One problem that has plagued Genetic Programming (GP) and its derivatives is numerical constant creation. Given a mathematical formula expressed as a tree structure, the leaf node...
The paper considers the problem of selecting individuals in the current population in Genetic Algorithms for crossover to find a solution of high fitness of a given combinatoria...
It is widely accepted that the optimal alignment between a pair of proteins or nucleic acid sequences that minimizes the edit distance may not necessarily re
