Balanced crossover operators in Genetic Algorithms [PDF]
In several combinatorial optimization problems arising in cryptography and design theory, the admissible solutions must often satisfy a balancedness constraint, such as being represented by bitstrings with a fixed number of ones. For this reason, several works in the literature tackling these optimization problems with Genetic Algorithms (GA ...

Representation Invariant Genetic Operators [PDF]
A genetic algorithm is invariant with respect to a set of representations if it runs the same no matter which of the representations is used. We formalize this concept mathematically, showing that the representations generate a group that acts upon the search space. Invariant genetic operators are those that commute with this group action.

Operator and parameter adaptation in genetic algorithms [PDF]
Genetic Algorithms are a class of powerful, robust search techniques based on genetic inheritance and the Darwinian metaphor of “Natural Selection”. These algorithms maintain a finite memory of individual points on the search landscape known as the “population”.

Genetic Operators and Sequencing in the GAuGE System [PDF]
This paper investigates the effects of the mapping process employed by the GAuGE system on standard genetic operators. It is shown that the application of that mapping process transforms these operators into suitable sequencing searching tools. A practical application is analysed, and its results compared with a standard genetic algorithm, using the ...

CROSSOVER OPERATORS IN GENETIC ALGORITHMS: A REVIEW [PDF]
The performance of Genetic Algorithm (GA) depends on various operators. Crossover operator is one of them. Crossover operators are mainly classified as application dependent crossover operators and application independent crossover operators.

A comparative study of adaptive mutation operators for metaheuristics [PDF]
Genetic algorithms (GAs) are a class of stochastic optimization methods inspired by the principles of natural evolution. Adaptation of strategy parameters and genetic operators has become an important and promising research area in GAs.

A Novel Sparrow Search Algorithm for the Traveling Salesman Problem
The sparrow search algorithm (SSA) tends to fall into local optima and to have insufficient stagnation when applied to the traveling salesman problem (TSP). To address this issue, we propose a novel greedy genetic sparrow search algorithm based on a sine
