Anisotropic selection in cellular genetic algorithms
David Simoncini, Sébastien Verel, Philippe Collard +1
In this paper we introduce a new selection scheme in cellular genetic algorithms (cGAs). Anisotropic Selection (AS) promotes diversity and allows accurate control of the selective…
Measuring the Evolvability Landscape to study Neutrality
Sébastien Verel, Philippe Collard, Manuel Clergue
This theoretical work defines the measure of autocorrelation of evolvability in the context of neutral fitness landscape. This measure has been studied on the classical MAX-SAT pro…
Local search heuristics: Fitness Cloud versus Fitness Landscape
Philippe Collard, Sébastien Verel, Manuel Clergue
This paper introduces the concept of fitness cloud as an alternative way to visualize and analyze search spaces than given by the geographic notion of fitness landscape. It is argu…
Fitness landscape of the cellular automata majority problem: View from the Olympus
Sébastien Verel, Philippe Collard, Marco Tomassini +1
In this paper we study cellular automata (CAs) that perform the computational Majority task. This task is a good example of what the phenomenon of emergence in complex systems is.…
