Predictive Models Using Fitness Distributions of Genetic Operators
An important goal of the theory of genetic algorithms is to build predictive models of how well genetic algorithms are expected to perform, given a representation, a fitness lands...

Informed operators: Speeding up genetic-algorithm-based design optimization using reduced models
In this paper we describe a method for improving genetic-algorithm-based optimization using informed genetic operators. The idea is to make the genetic operators such as mutation ...

Topological Interpretation of Crossover
Abstract. In this paper we give a representation-independent topological definition of crossover that links it tightly to the notion of fitness landscape. Building around this defi...
