A simple genetic algorithm for the design of reinforced concrete beams
TL;DR: An optimization model for the design of rectangular reinforced concrete beams subject to a specified set of constraints is presented, which minimizes the cost of the beam on strength design procedures, while also considering the costs of concrete, steel and shuttering.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solving Electrical Distribution Problems Using Hybrid Evolutionary Data Analysis Techniques
TL;DR: This paper shows that Genetic Fuzzy Rule-Based Systems and Genetic Programming techniques are good choices for tackling with some practical modeling problems and that both evolutionary processes may produce good numerical results while providing us with a model that can be interpreted by a human being.
Evolutionary Design of Neural Architectures -- A Preliminary Taxonomy and Guide to Literature
TL;DR: This report motivates current research on evolutionary design of neural architectures (EDNA) and presents a short overview of major research issues in this area and includes a preliminary taxonomy of research on EDNA and an extensive bibliography of publications.

Optimization by Simulated Annealing
TL;DR: There is a deep and useful connection between statistical mechanics and multivariate or combinatorial optimization (finding the minimum of a given function depending on many parameters), and a detailed analogy with annealing in solids provides a framework for optimization of very large and complex systems.

Ecological Diversity and its Measurement
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define definitions of diversity and apply them to the problem of measuring species diversity, choosing an index and interpreting diversity measures, and applying them to structural and structural diversity.

The perception: a probabilistic model for information storage and organization in the brain
TL;DR: The second and third questions are still subject to a vast amount of speculation, and where the few relevant facts currently supplied by neurophysiology have not yet been integrated into an acceptable theory as mentioned in this paper.
