A Non-Linear Schema Theorem for Genetic Algorithms
We generalize Holland's Schema Theorem to the setting that genes are arranged, not necessarily in a linear sequence, but as the nodes in a connected graph. We have experiment...

A framework of space-time continuous models for algorithm design in swarm robotics
Designing and analyzing self-organizing systems such as robotic swarms is a challenging task even though we have complete knowledge about the robot's interior. It is difficul...

On the average case performance of some greedy approximation algorithms for the uncapacitated facility location problem
In combinatorial optimization, a popular approach to NP-hard problems is the design of approximation algorithms. These algorithms typically run in polynomial time and are guarante...

An ant colony optimizer for melody creation with baroque harmony
— We propose an algorithm that is based on the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) metaheuristic for producing harmonized melodies. The algorithm works in two stages. In the first sta...
