The Effects of Locality on the Dynamics of Decoder-Based Evolutionary Search
The success of decoder-based evolutionary algorithms (EAs) strongly depends on the achieved locality of operators and decoders. Most approaches to investigate locality properties ...

Evolving Molecules for Drug Design Using Genetic Algorithms via Molecular Trees
We present a new representation for a genetic algorithm to evolve molecular structures representing possible drugs that bind to a given protein target receptor. Our representation...
