Complex representation in Genetic Algorithms and pattern in real problems limits the effect of crossover to construct better pattern from sporadic building blocks. Instead of intro...
This paper shows an application in the field of Electronic CAD of the Selfish Gene algorithm, an evolutionary algorithm based on a recent interpretation of the Darwinian theory. Te...

In this paper we present a randomized parallel algorithm to sample matchings from an almost uniform distribution on the set of matchings of all sizes in a graph. First we prove th...
In an evolutionary algorithm, the population has a very important role as its size has direct implications regarding solution quality, speed, and reliability. Theoretical studies ...
In recent decades, many meta-heuristics, including genetic algorithm (GA), ant colony optimization (ACO) and various local search (LS) procedures have been developed for solving a...
