Behavior of finite population variable length genetic algorithms under random selection
In this work we provide empirical evidence that shows how a variable-length genetic algorithm (GA) can naturally evolve shorter average size populations. This reduction in chromos...

The role of diverse populations in phylogenetic analysis
The most popular approaches for reconstructing phylogenetic trees attempt to solve NP-hard optimization criteria such as maximum parsimony (MP). Currently, the bestperforming heur...

Seeding Genetic Programming Populations
We show genetic programming (GP) populations can evolve under the influence of a Pareto multi-objective fitness and program size selection scheme, from "perfect" programs...

Using pair approximations to predict takeover dynamics in spatially structured populations
The topological properties of a network directly impact the flow of information through a system. For example, in natural populations, the network of inter-individual contacts aff...

Preserving population diversity for the multi-objective vehicle routing problem with time windows
The Vehicle Routing Problem’s main objective is to find the lowest-cost set of routes to deliver goods to customers, which have a service time window, using a fleet of identic...
