Abstract. Bilevel optimization problems require every feasible upperlevel solution to satisfy optimality of a lower-level optimization problem. These problems commonly appear in ma...
Efficient Natural Evolution Strategies (eNES) is a novel alternative to conventional evolutionary algorithms, using the natural gradient to adapt the mutation distribution. Unlike...
— A cognitive system is presented, which is based on coupling a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm with a fuzzy information processing system. The aim of the system is to ide...
el of abstraction by integrating a high-level estimation step. This results in a design loop which is tight led on high level of abstraction (called estimation loop in figure 1). ...
This paper describes how design information, in our case UML specifications, can be used to evolve a software system and validate the consistency of such an evolution. This work c...
