This paper reports about the application of a new variant of multiobjective Mixed-Integer Evolution Strategy to a warehouse design optimization problem. The algorithm is able to d...
The Baldwin Effect is a very plausible, but unproven, biological theory concerning the power of learning to accelerate evolution. Simple computational models in the 1980’s gave...
This paper presents a new form of Genetic Programming called Cartesian Genetic Programming in which a program is represented as an indexed graph. The graph is encoded in the form o...
The Covariance-Matrix-Adaptation Evolution-Strategy (CMA-ES) is a robust stochastic search algorithm for optimizing functions defined on a continuous search space RD . Recently, ...
Derandomization by means of mirrored samples has been recently introduced to enhance the performances of (1, λ) and (1 + 2) Evolution-Strategies (ESs) with the aim of designing f...
The Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP) is a well-known NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem that is at the core of many real-world optimization problems. We prove that QAP c...
We propose a novel variant of the (1 + 1)-CMA-ES that updates the distribution of mutation vectors based on both successful and unsuccessful trial steps. The computational costs o...
The island model for evolutionary algorithms allows to delay the global convergence of the evolution process and encourage diversity. However, solving large size and time-intensiv...
