Structural bias in population-based algorithms
Anna V. Kononova, David W. Corne, Philippe De Wilde +2
Challenging optimisation problems are abundant in all areas of science. Since the 1950s, scientists have developed ever-diversifying families of black box optimisation algorithms d…
Ecosystem-Oriented Distributed Evolutionary Computing
Gerard Briscoe, Philippe De Wilde
We create a novel optimisation technique inspired by natural ecosystems, where the optimisation works at two levels: a first optimisation, migration of genes which are distributed…
Self-Organisation of Evolving Agent Populations in Digital Ecosystems
Gerard Briscoe, Philippe De Wilde
We investigate the self-organising behaviour of Digital Ecosystems, because a primary motivation for our research is to exploit the self-organising properties of biological ecosyst…
Digital Ecosystems: Ecosystem-Oriented Architectures
Gerard Briscoe, Suzanne Sadedin, Philippe De Wilde
We view Digital Ecosystems to be the digital counterparts of biological ecosystems. Here, we are concerned with the creation of these Digital Ecosystems, exploiting the self-organi…
Physical Complexity of Variable Length Symbolic Sequences
Gerard Briscoe, Philippe De Wilde
A measure called Physical Complexity is established and calculated for a population of sequences, based on statistical physics, automata theory, and information theory. It is a mea…
Stability of Evolving Multi-Agent Systems
Philippe De Wilde, Gerard Briscoe
A Multi-Agent System is a distributed system where the agents or nodes perform complex functions that cannot be written down in analytic form. Multi-Agent Systems are highly connec…
