An Analysis of the Fitness Landscape of Travelling Salesman Problem [PDF]
The fitness landscape of the travelling salesman problem is investigated for 11 different types of the problem. The types differ in how the distances between cities are generated. Many different properties of the landscape are studied. The properties chosen are all potentially relevant to choosing an appropriate search algorithm.

On Stochastic Fitness Landscapes: Local Optimality and Fitness Landscape Analysis for Stochastic Search Operators [PDF]
Fitness landscape analysis is a well-established tool for gaining insights about optimization problems and informing about the behavior of local and evolutionary search algorithms. In the conventional definition of a fitness landscape, the neighborhood of a given solution is a set containing nearby solutions whose distance is below a threshold, or that

Correlation analysis of coupled fitness landscapes
AbstractThe correlation structure of fitness landscapes is a much used measure to characterize and classify various types of landscapes. However, analyzing the correlation structure of fitness landscapes has so far been restricted to static landscapes only. Here, we investigate the correlation structure of coupled, or dynamic, fitness landscapes. Using

Generalised Pattern Search with Restarting Fitness Landscape Analysis [PDF]
AbstractFitness landscape analysis for optimisation is a technique that involves analysing black-box optimisation problems to extract pieces of information about the problem, which can beneficially inform the design of the optimiser. Thus, the design of the algorithm aims to address the specific features detected during the analysis of the problem ...

Fourier analysis of the fitness landscape for evolutionary search acceleration [PDF]
We propose an approach for approximating a fitness landscape by filtering its frequency components in order to accelerate evolutionary computation (EC) and evaluate the performance of the technique. In addition to the EC individuals, the entire fitness landscape is resampled uniformly.

Analysis of fitness landscape modifications in evolutionary dynamic optimization
Dans ce travail, les problèmes discrets d'optimisation dynamique (DOP) sont théoriquement analysés en fonction des modifications produites dans le paysage du fitness au cours du processus d'optimisation. À l'aide du cadre d'analyse proposé, les DOP suivantes sont analysées : les problèmes générés par le générateur de DOP XOR, trois versions du problème

Fitness Landscape Analysis for the Differential Evolution Algorithm
It is crucial to understand how fitness landscape characteristics (FLCs) are associated with the performance and behavior of the differential evolution (DE) algorithm to optimize its application across various optimization problems. Although previous studies have explored DE performance in relation to FLCs, these studies have limitations. Specifically,
