A feasibility-preserving local search operator for constrained discrete optimization problems
Abstract— Meta-heuristic optimization approaches are commonly applied to many discrete optimization problems. Many of these optimization approaches are based on a local search op...

Variable discrimination of crossover versus mutation using parameterized modular structure
Recent work has provided functions that can be used to prove a principled distinction between the capabilities of mutation-based and crossover-based algorithms. However, prior fun...

Using Formal Grammar and Genetic Operators to Evolve Malware
In this paper, we leverage the concepts of formal grammar and genetic operators to evolve malware. As a case study, we take COM infectors and design their formal grammar with produ...

Rank based variation operators for genetic algorithms
We show how and why using genetic operators that are applied with probabilities that depend on the fitness rank of a genotype or phenotype offers a robust alternative to the Sim...
