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...
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...
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...

Given a collection of terminals, each with a demand, a collection of concentrators, each with a capacity, and costs of connecting the terminals to the concentrators, the terminal ...
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...
