The Role of Population Size in Rate of Evolution in Genetic Programming
Abstract. Population size is a critical parameter that affects the performance of an Evolutionary Computation model. A variable population size scheme is considered potentially be...

Adaptive sizing of populations and number of islands in distributed genetic algorithms
Deciding the appropriate population size and number of islands for distributed island-model genetic algorithms is often critical to the algorithm’s success. This paper outlines ...

On Population Size and Neutrality: Facilitating the Evolution of Evolvability
The role of population size is investigated within a neutrality induced local optima free search space. Neutrality decouples genotypic variation in evolvability from fitness varia...

Handling Constraints in Particle Swarm Optimization Using a Small Population Size
This paper presents a particle swarm optimizer for solving constrained optimization problems which adopts a very small population size (five particles). The proposed approach uses...
