—Univariate Marginal Distribution Algorithms (UMDAs) are a kind of Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) which do not consider the dependencies among the variables. In thi...
Like Darwinian-type genetic algorithms, there also exists genetic drift in Univariate Marginal Distribution Algorithm (UMDA). Since the universal analysis of genetic drift in UMDA...
— Estimation of Distribution Algorithm (EDA) is a well-known stochastic optimization technique. The average time complexity is a crucial criterion that measures the performance o...
Estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs) are widely used in stochastic optimization. Impressive experimental results have been reported in the literature. However, little work ...
—Despite the wide-spread popularity of estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs), there has been no theoretical proof that there exist optimisation problems where EDAs perform...
