A survey of mutation techniques in genetic programming
The importance of mutation varies across evolutionary computation domains including: genetic programming, evolution strategies, and genetic algorithms. In the genetic programming ...

Probabilistic modeling for continuous EDA with Boltzmann selection and Kullback-Leibeler divergence
This paper extends the Boltzmann Selection, a method in EDA with theoretical importance, from discrete domain to the continuous one. The difficulty of estimating the exact Boltzma...

The baldwin effect in developing neural networks
The Baldwin Effect is a very plausible, but unproven, biological theory concerning the power of learning to accelerate evolution. Simple computational models in the 1980’s gave...

Optimal Mutation Rates and Selection Pressure in Genetic Algorithms
It has been argued that optimal per-locus mutation rates in GAs are proportional to selection pressure and the reciprocal of genotype length. In this paper we suggest that the not...

A case study: demands on component-based development
Building software systems with reusable components brings many advantages. The development becomes more efficient, the reliability of the products is enhanced, and the maintenance...
