Not all linear functions are equally difficult for the compact genetic algorithm
Estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs) try to solve an optimization problem by finding a probability distribution focussed around its optima. For this purpose they conduct ...

Probing for limits to building block mixing with a tunably-difficult problem for genetic programming
This paper describes a tunably-difficult problem for genetic programming (GP) that probes for limits to building block mixing and assembly. The existence of such a problem can be ...
