The GENITOR Algorithm and Selection Pressure: Why Rank-Based Allocation of Reproductive Trials is Best
TL;DR: This paper reports work done over the past three years using rank-based allocation of reproductive trials to suggest that allocating reproductive trials according to rank is superior to tness proportionate reproduction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic algorithms and neural networks: optimizing connections and connectivity
TL;DR: An overview of several different experiments applying genetic algorithms to neural network problems including optimizing the weighted connections in feed-forward neural networks using both binary and real-valued representations and using a genetic algorithm to discover novel architectures for neural networks that learn using error propagation are presented.
Proceedings Article
Scheduling Problems and Traveling Salesmen: The Genetic Edge Recombination Operator
Journal ArticleDOI
An overview of evolutionary algorithms: practical issues and common pitfalls
TL;DR: An overview of evolutionary algorithms is presented covering genetic algorithms, evolution strategies, genetic programming and evolutionary programming, and the schema theorem is reviewed and critiqued.
Proceedings Article
A Comparison of Genetic Sequencing Operators.
TL;DR: This work compares six sequencing operators that have been developed for use with genetic algorithms and indicates that the eeective-ness of diierent operators is dependent on the problem domain.
