This paper describes a system for simulating the evolution of artificial 2D plant morphologies. Virtual plant genotypes are inspired by the mathematical formalism known as Lindenma...
This paper presents two variants of Genetic Algorithms (GAs) for solving the Multiple Container Packing Problem (MCPP), which is a combinatorial optimization problem comprising sim...
Abstract. In this paper we investigate the usefulness of a new operator, inver-over, for an evolutionary algorithm for the TSP. Inver-over is based on simple inversion, however, kn...
In previous work, we have investigated real coded genetic algorithms with several types of multi-parent recombination operators and found evidence that multi-parent recombination w...
The Building-Block Hypothesis appeals to the notion of problem decomposition and the assembly of solutions from sub-solutions. Accordingly, there have been many varieties of GA tes...
