Parameterisation of mutation in evolutionary algorithms using the estimated main effect of genes (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper describes how to estimate the main effect of genes in genetic algorithms (GAs). The resulting estimates can not only be used to understand the domination of genes in a GA but also employed to tailor the mutation rate in the GA. A new appro...

An empirical study on the performance of factorial design based crossover on parametrical problems (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In the past, empirical studies have shown that factorial design based crossover can outperform standard crossover on parametrical problems. However, up to now, no conclusion has been reached as to what kind of landscape factorial design based crossov...

Teams of autonomous agents for job-shop scheduling problems: An experimental study (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

ATeams - teams of autonomous agents co-operating by sharing solutions through a common memory-have been proposed as a means of solving combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper, the ATeam architecture is tested on the job-shop scheduling pro... Read More about Teams of autonomous agents for job-shop scheduling problems: An experimental study.

A Taguchi method-based crossover operator for the parametrical problems (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Based on our observation, some major steps in the genetic algorithm, such as the crossover operator, can be considered as experiments. The aim is to apply experimental design techniques to improve the crossover operator, so that the resulting operato...

An epistasis measure based on the analysis of variance for the real-coded representation in genetic algorithms (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Epistasis is a measure of interdependence between genes and an indicator of problem difficulty in genetic algorithms. Many researches have concentrated on the epistasis measure in binary coded representation in genetic algorithms. However, a few atte...
