Abstract. Nowadays genetic algorithms stand as a trend to solve NPcomplete and NP-hard problems. In this paper, we present a new hybrid metaheuristic which uses Parallel Genetic Al...
A Quasi-Monte-Carlo method based on the computation of a surrogate model of the fitness function is proposed, and its convergence at super-linear rate 3/2 is proved under rather ...
We present methods to answer two basic questions that arise when benchmarking optimization algorithms. The first one is: which algorithm is the `best' one? and the second one:...
Recently, a new iterative optimization framework utilizing an evolutionary algorithm called "Prototype Optimization with Evolved iMprovement Steps" (POEMS) was introduced...
This paperaddresses the problemof algorithm discovery, via evolutionarysearch, in the context of matrix multiplication. Thetraditional multiplicationalgorithm requiresO(n3) multip...
