First Steps Towards a Runtime Analysis of Neuroevolution

Paul Fischer, Emil Lundt Larsen, Carsten Witt

We consider a simple setting in neuroevolution where an evolutionary algorithm optimizes the weights and activation functions of a simple artificial neural network. We then define…

3-Objective Pareto Optimization for Problems with Chance Constraints

Frank Neumann, Carsten Witt

Evolutionary multi-objective algorithms have successfully been used in the context of Pareto optimization where a given constraint is relaxed into an additional objective. In this…

The Compact Genetic Algorithm Struggles on Cliff Functions

Frank Neumann, Dirk Sudholt, Carsten Witt

The compact genetic algorithm (cGA) is an non-elitist estimation of distribution algorithm which has shown to be able to deal with difficult multimodal fitness landscapes that are…

Runtime Analysis of Single- and Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithms for Chance Constrained Optimization Problems with Normally Distributed Random Variables

Frank Neumann, Carsten Witt

Chance constrained optimization problems allow to model problems where constraints involving stochastic components should only be violated with a small probability. Evolutionary al…
