This contribution is the first to discover exploitable structural features within circuit optimization problems (COP) and discuss how it is indicative of a general structure and ...
The compact Genetic Algorithm (cGA) is an Estimation of Distribution Algorithm that generates offspring population according to the estimated probabilistic model of the parent pop...
— This paper presents Natural Evolution Strategies (NES), a novel algorithm for performing real-valued ‘black box’ function optimization: optimizing an unknown objective func...
: Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is arguably one of the most popular nature- inspired algorithms for real parameter optimization at present. The existing theoretical research on...
We investigate the effects of precision on the efficiency of various local search algorithms on 1-D unimodal functions. We present a (1 + 1)-EA with adaptive step size which fin...
