Information Exchange in Multi Colony Ant Algorithms
Multi colony ant algorithms are evolutionary optimization heuristics that are well suited for parallel execution. Information exchange between the colonies is an important topic th...

Instance similarity and the effectiveness of case injection in a genetic algorithm for binary quadratic programming
When an evolutionary algorithm addresses a sequence of instances of the same problem, it can seed its population with solutions that it found for previous instances. This techniqu...

Robot gaits evolved by combining genetic algorithms and binary hill climbing
In this paper an evolutionary algorithm is used for evolving gaits in a walking biped robot controller. The focus is fast learning in a real-time environment. An incremental appro...

A hierarchical cooperative evolutionary algorithm
To successfully search multiple coadaptive subcomponents in a solution, we developed a novel cooperative evolutionary algorithm based on a new computational multilevel selection f...
