Learning-assisted evolutionary search for scalable function optimization: LEM(ID3)
Inspired originally by the Learnable Evolution Model(LEM) [5], we investigate LEM(ID3), a hybrid of evolutionary search with ID3 decision tree learning. LEM(ID3) involves interleav...

Iterated local search vs. hyper-heuristics: Towards general-purpose search algorithms
An important challenge within hyper-heuristic research is to design search methodologies that work well, not only across different instances of the same problem, but also across di...

What is the relationship between behavioral robustness and distributed mechanisms of cognitive behavior?
There is a growing trend in the cognitive sciences to conceive of cognitive behavior as being distributed across brain, body and environment. However, the implications of such dist...

Evolving programs with parameters and loops
At the current state of the art, genetic programs do not contain two constructs that commonly occur in programs written by humans, that is, loops and functions with parameters. In ...
