A Study of Structural and Parametric Learning in XCS
The performance of a learning classifier system is due to its two main components. First, it evolves new structures by generating new rules in a genetic process; second, it adjust...

Human-Competitive Evolution of Quantum Computing Artefacts by Genetic Programming
We show how Genetic Programming (GP) can be used to evolve useful quantum computing artefacts of increasing sophistication and usefulness: firstly specific quantum circuits, then ...

GASAT: A Genetic Local Search Algorithm for the Satisfiability Problem
This paper presents GASAT, a hybrid algorithm for the satisfiability problem (SAT). The main feature of GASAT is that it includes a recombination stage based on a specific crossov...

Automated Global Structure Extraction for Effective Local Building Block Processing in XCS
Learning Classifier Systems (LCSs), such as the accuracy-based XCS, evolve distributed problem solutions represented by a population of rules. During evolution, features are speci...

Error Thresholds in Genetic Algorithms
The error threshold of replication is an important notion of the quasispecies evolution model; it is a critical mutation rate (error rate) beyond which structures obtained by an e...

An Extension of Geiringer's Theorem for a Wide Class of Evolutionary Search Algorithms
The frequency with which various elements of the search space of a given evolutionary algorithm are sampled is affected by the family of recombination (reproduction) operators. Th...
