Abstract
We analyze the performance of a Genetic Type Algorithm we call Culling and a variety of other algorithms on a problem we refer to as ASP. Culling is near optimal for this problem, highly noise tolerant, and the best known a~~roach . . in some regimes. We show that the problem of learning the Ising perception is reducible to noisy ASP. These results provide an example of a rigorous analysis of GA’s and give insight into when and how C,A’s can beat competing methods. To analyze the genetic algorithm, we view it as a special type of submartingale. We prove some new large deviation bounds on this submartingale w~ich enable us to determine the running time of the algorithm.

Developing a predictive method based on optimized M5Rules–GA predicting heating load of an energy-efficient building system

TL;DR: The M5Rules has been proposed as the best predictive network in this study and combined with the GA optimization algorithm to estimate the amount of heating load mitigation from an EEB (energy efficiency buildings) system.

On the Benefits and Risks of Using Fitness Sharing for Multimodal Optimisation

TL;DR: It is shown theoretically and empirically that large offspring populations in ( μ + λ ) EA s can be detrimental as creating too many offspring in one particular area of the search space can make all individuals in this area go extinct.

A BRILS metaheuristic for non-smooth flow-shop problems with failure-risk costs

TL;DR: This paper analyzes a realistic variant of the Permutation Flow-Shop Problem (PFSP) by considering a non-smooth objective function that takes into account not only the traditional makespan cost but also failure-risk costs due to uninterrupted operation of machines.
