Evaluation-Time Bias in Asynchronous Evolutionary Algorithms
GECCO Companion '15: Proceedings of the Companion Publication of the 2015 Annual Conference on Genetic and Evolutionary ComputationParallelization of fitness evaluation is an established practice in evolutionary computation, and is a necessity in applications where fitness functions are computationally expensive. Traditional master-slave EAs based on a synchronous, generational ...
Initial-population bias in the univariate estimation of distribution algorithm
GECCO '09: Proceedings of the 11th Annual conference on Genetic and evolutionary computationThis paper analyzes the effects of an initial-population bias on the performance of the univariate marginal distribution algorithm (UMDA). The analysis considers two test problems: (1) onemax and (2) noisy onemax. Theoretical models are provided and ...
