Hierarchical BOA in the Real World
The last chapter designed hBOA, which was shown to provide scalable solution for hierarchical traps. Since hierarchical traps were designed to test... -
Bayesian Optimization Algorithm
The previous chapter argued that using probabilistic models with multivariate interactions is a powerful approach to solving problems of bounded... -
Probabilistic Model-Building Genetic Algorithms
The previous chapter showed that variation operators in genetic and evolutionary algorithms can be replaced by learning a probabilistic model of... -
Scalability Analysis
The empirical results of the last chapter were tantalizing. Easy and hard problems were automatically solved without user intervention in polynomial... -
