Abstract. In this paper, we review some classical recombination operations and devise new heuristic recombinations for the fixed-length subset. Our experimental results on the cla...
Many real-world search and optimization problems naturally involve constraint handling. Recently, quite a few heuristic methods were proposed to solve the nonlinear constrained op...
We describe a scheme for solving Energy Minimization problems, which is based on the A∗ algorithm accomplished with appropriately chosen LP-relaxations as heuristic functions. Th...
Many applications require optimizing an unknown, noisy function that is expensive to evaluate. We formalize this task as a multiarmed bandit problem, where the payoff function is ...

In this paper a new class of hybridization strategies between GA and PSO is presented and validated. The Genetical Swarm Optimization (GSO) approach is presented here with respect ...
