Several variants of the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm have been proposed in recent past to tackle the multi-objective optimization problems based on the concept of Pa...
This paper presents a novel hybrid method combining genetic programming and decision tree learning. The method starts by estimating a benchmark level of reasonable accuracy, based ...
The performance of Evolutionary Programming (EP) is affected by many factors (e.g. mutation operators and selection strategies). Although the conventional approach with Gaussian mu...
