Particle swarm optimization (PSO) has been in practice for more than 10 years now and has gained wide popularity in various optimization tasks. In the context to single objective ...
Multiobjective evolutionary algorithms have long been applied to engineering problems. Lately they have also been used to evolve behaviors for intelligent agents. In such applicat...
Shaping functions can be used in multi-task reinforcement learning (RL) to incorporate knowledge from previously experienced tasks to speed up learning on a new task. So far, rese...
Understanding the evolution of cooperation as part of an evolutionary stable strategy (ESS) is a difficult problem that has been the focus of much work. The associated costs of co...

Abstract. Geometric Differential Evolution (GDE) is a very recently introduced formal generalization of traditional Differential Evolution (DE) that can be used to derive specific ...
The interactive decision making (IDM) methods exploit the preference information from the decision maker during the optimization task to guide the search towards favourite solution...
This paper investigates the impact of sequential selection, a concept recently introduced for Evolution Strategies (ESs), that consists in performing the evaluations of the diffe...
In this paper, we study the performances of the NEW Unconstrained Optimization Algorithm (NEWUOA) with different numbers of interpolation points. NEWUOA is a trust region method, ...
