A survey of niching algorithms, based on 5 variants of derandomized Evolution Strategies (ES), is introduced. This set of niching algorithms, ranging from the very first derandom...
The process of development creates a phenotype from one or more genotypes of an individual through interaction with an environment. The opportunity for development to choose a phe...
This paper deals with the adaptive variance scaling issue in continuous Estimation of Distribution Algorithms. A phenomenon is discovered that current adaptive variance scaling me...
Standard detection algorithms for nonlinearity linkage fail when applied to typical problems in the analysis of financial time-series data. We explain how this failure arises whe...
Genetic Programming (GP) is an automated computational programming methodology, inspired by the workings of natural evolution techniques. It has been applied to solve complex prob...
