Convergence Models of Genetic Algorithm Selection Schemes
We discuss the use of normal distribution theory as a tool to model the convergence characteristics of di erent GA selection schemes. The models predict the proportion of optimal a...

Selection in the Presence of Noise
For noisy optimization problems, there is generally a trade-off between the effort spent to reduce the noise (in order to allow the optimization algorithm to run properly), and t...

Fitnessless coevolution
We introduce fitnessless coevolution (FC), a novel method of comparative one-population coevolution. FC plays games between individuals to settle tournaments in the selection pha...

Enhancing the Performance of GP Using an Ancestry-Based Mate Selection Scheme
The performance of genetic programming relies mostly on population-contained variation. If the population diversity is low then there will be a greater chance of the algorithm bein...

Threshold selecting: best possible probability distribution for crossover selection in genetic algorithms
The paper considers the problem of selecting individuals in the current population in Genetic Algorithms for crossover to find a solution of high fitness of a given combinatoria...
