Evolving Evolutionary Algorithms using Linear Genetic Programming [PDF]
A new model for evolving Evolutionary Algorithms is proposed in this paper. The model is based on the Linear Genetic Programming (LGP) technique. Every LGP chromosome encodes an EA which is used for solving a particular problem. Several Evolutionary Algorithms for function optimization, the Traveling Salesman Problem, and the Quadratic Assignment ...

Evolving Evolutionary Algorithms using Multi Expression Programming [PDF]
Finding the optimal parameter setting (i.e. the optimal population size, the optimal mutation probability, the optimal evolutionary model etc) for an Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) is a difficult task. Instead of evolving only the parameters of the algorithm we will evolve an entire EA capable of solving a particular problem.

A discipline of evolutionary programming
Genetic fitness optimization using small populations or small population updates across generations generally suffers from randomly diverging evolutions. We propose a notion of highly probable fitness optimization through feasible evolutionary computing runs on small size populations. Based on rapidly mixing Markov chains, the approach pertains to most

Evolutionary Algorithms and Dynamic Programming [PDF]
Recently, it has been proven that evolutionary algorithms produce good results for a wide range of combinatorial optimization problems. Some of the considered problems are tackled by evolutionary algorithms that use a representation which enables them to construct solutions in a dynamic programming fashion.

Evolutionary Improvement of Programs [PDF]
Most applications of genetic programming (GP) involve the creation of an entirely new function, program or expression to solve a specific problem. In this paper, we propose a new approach that applies GP to improve existing software by optimizing its non-functional properties such as execution time, memory usage, or power consumption.

The role of concurrency in an evolutionary view of programming abstractions [PDF]
In this paper we examine how concurrency has been embodied in mainstream programming languages. In particular, we rely on the evolutionary talking borrowed from biology to discuss major historical landmarks and crucial concepts that shaped the development of programming languages.

A spatial agent-based model for hydraulic fracturing water distribution
Agent-based modeling (ABM) has been employed to understand and capture the complexity of the coupled human-nature processes in water resource systems. One of the challenges is to model human decisions in the coupled human and natural systems.

Quadrupedal Robots’ Gaits Identification via Contact Forces Optimization
The purpose of the present paper is the identification of optimal trajectories of quadruped robots through genetic algorithms. The method is based on the identification of the optimal time history of forces and torques exchanged between the ground and ...

Economic Dispatch (ED) problems have been solved using single-objective optimization for so long, as Grid System Operators (GSOs) previously only focused on minimizing the total production cost.

Genetic Algorithms are stochastic optimization methods where solution candidates, complying to a specific problem representation, are evaluated according to a predefined fitness function.
