1996BI-16Oxford UK: Oxford University Press 1996. Scholarly highly acclaimed text presents a unified view of evolutionary algorithms: the exciting new probabilistic search tools inspired by biological models that have immense potential as practical problem-solvers in a wide variety of settings academic commercial and industrial. In this work the author compares the three most prominent representatives of evolutionary algorithms: genetic algorithms evolution strategies and evolutionary programming. The algorithms are presented within a unified framework thereby clarifying the similarities and differences of these methods. The author also presents new results regarding the role of mutation and selection in genetic algorithms showing how mutation seems to be much more important for the performance of genetic algorithms than usually assumed. The interaction of selection and mutation and the impact of the binary code are further topics of interest. Some of the theoretical results are also confirmed by performing an experiment in meta-evolution on a parallel computer. The meta-algorithm used in this experiment combines components from evolution strategies and genetic algorithms to yield a hybrid capable of handling mixed integer optimization problems. 314 pgs.

1998CS-365Cambridge MA.: Massachusetts Institute of Technology 1998. In this comprehensive highly acclaimed text Koza shows that complex problems can be solved by breaking them down into smaller simpler problems using the recently developed technique of automatic function definition. Where conventional techniques of machine learning and artificial intelligence fail to provide an effective means for automatically handling the process of decomposing complex problems into smaller subsets reassembling the solutions to these subsets and applying an overall solution to the original problem automatic function definition enables genetic programming to define useful and reusable subroutines dynamically. Koza illustrates this new technique by showing how it solves or approximately solves a variety of problems in Boolean function learning symbolic regression control pattern recognition robotics classification and molecular biology. In each example the problem is automatically decomposed into subproblems; the subproblems are automatically solved; and the solutions to the subproblems are automatically assembled into a solution to the original problem. Koza shows that leverage accrues because genetic programming with automatic function definition repeatedly uses the solutions to the subproblems in the assembly of the solution to the overall problem. Moreover genetic programming with automatic function definition produces solutions that are simpler and smaller than the solution obtained without automatic function definition. 746 pgs. Illustrated.
