Odd-flavor Simulations by the Hybrid Monte Carlo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The standard hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm is known to simulate even flavors QCD only. Simulations of odd flavors QCD, however, can be also performed in the framework of the hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm where the inverse of the fermion matrix is ...

Simulation of n_f =3 QCD by Hybrid Monte Carlo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Simulations of odd flavors QCD can be performed in the framework of the hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm where the inverse of the fermion matrix is approximated by a polynomial. In this exploratory study we perform three flavors QCD simulations.

Hybridization of Evolutionary Algorithms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Evolutionary algorithms are good general problem solver but suffer from a lack of domain specific knowledge. However, the problem specific knowledge can be added to evolutionary algorithms by hybridizing. Interestingly, all the elements of the evolutionary algorithms can be hybridized.
