Implicit alternative splicing for genetic algorithms
— In this paper we present a new nature-inspired variation operator for binary encodings in genetic algorithms (GAs). Our method, called implicit alternative splicing (iAS), is r...

Differential evolution for high-dimensional function optimization
— Most reported studies on differential evolution (DE) are obtained using low-dimensional problems, e.g., smaller than 100, which are relatively small for many real-world problem...
