iBOA: The Incremental Bayesian Optimization Algorithm

Martin Pelikan, Kumara Sastry, David E. Goldberg

This paper proposes the incremental Bayesian optimization algorithm (iBOA), which modifies standard BOA by removing the population of solutions and using incremental updates of the…

Sub-structural Niching in Estimation of Distribution Algorithms

K. Sastry, H. A. Abbass, D. E. Goldberg +1

We propose a sub-structural niching method that fully exploits the problem decomposition capability of linkage-learning methods such as the estimation of distribution algorithms an…

Oiling the Wheels of Change: The Role of Adaptive Automatic Problem Decomposition in Non--Stationary Environments

H. A. Abbass, K. Sastry, D. E. Goldberg

Genetic algorithms (GAs) that solve hard problems quickly, reliably and accurately are called competent GAs. When the fitness landscape of a problem changes overtime, the problem i…
