Standard and averaging reinforcement learning in XCS
This paper investigates reinforcement learning (RL) in XCS. First, it formally shows that XCS implements a method of generalized RL based on linear approximators, in which the usu...

Dominance hierarchies and social diversity in multi-agent systems
In this study, we investigate self-organizing social hierarchies in multi-agent systems. Agents occupy the nodes of a smallworld network and interact exclusively with other agents...

A genetic algorithm with backtracking for protein structure prediction
In this paper, we propose a simple genetic algorithm for finding the optimal conformation of a protein using the three-dimensional square HP model. A backtracking procedure is use...

An evolutionary approach to camera-based projector calibration
In this paper, we describe a GA to solve for the orientation and lens characteristics of a projector, given images of a dome screen illuminated by the projector. We use synthetic ...

On evolving buffer overflow attacks using genetic programming
In this work, we employed genetic programming to evolve a "white hat" attacker; that is to say, we evolve variants of an attack with the objective of providing better de...
