A quantitative analysis of estimation of distribution algorithms based on Bayesian networks
Echegoyen Arruti, Carlos; Mendiburu Alberro, Alexander; Santana Hermida, Roberto ; Lozano Alonso, José Antonio (2009)The successful application of estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs) to solve different kinds of problems has reinforced their candidature as promising black-box optimization tools. However, their internal behavior is ... -
A review on Estimation of Distribution Algorithms in Permutation-based Combinatorial Optimization Problems
Ceberio Uribe, Josu ; Irurozki, Ekhine; Mendiburu Alberro, Alexander; Lozano Alonso, José Antonio (2011)Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) are a set of algorithms that belong to the field of Evolutionary Computation. Characterized by the use of probabilistic models to represent the solutions and the dependencies ... -
Analyzing limits of effectiveness in different implementations of estimation of distribution algorithms
Echegoyen Arruti, Carlos; Zhang, Qingfu; Mendiburu Alberro, Alexander; Santana Hermida, Roberto ; Lozano Alonso, José Antonio (2011)Conducting research in order to know the range of problems in which a search algorithm is effective constitutes a fundamental issue to understand the algorithm and to continue the development of new techniques. In this ... -
Extending Distance-based Ranking Models In Estimation of Distribution Algorithms
Ceberio Uribe, Josu ; Irurozki, Ekhine; Mendiburu Alberro, Alexander; Lozano Alonso, José Antonio (2014-05-20)Recently, probability models on rankings have been proposed in the field of estimation of distribution algorithms in order to solve permutation-based combinatorial optimisation problems. Particularly, distance-based ranking ... -

New methods for generating populations in Markov network based EDAs: Decimation strategies and model-based template recombination
Methods for generating a new population are a fundamental component of estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs). They serve to transfer the information contained in the probabilistic model to the new generated population. ... -
On the application of estimation of distribution algorithms to multi-marker tagging SNP selection
Santana Hermida, Roberto ; Mendiburu Alberro, Alexander; Zaitlen, Noah; Eskin, Eleazar; Lozano Alonso, José Antonio (2009)This paper presents an algorithm for the automatic selection of a minimal subset of tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using an estimation of distribution algorithm (EDA). The EDA stochastically searches the ... -
The Linear Ordering Problem Revisited
The Linear Ordering Problem is a popular combinatorial optimisation problem which has been extensively addressed in the literature. However, in spite of its popularity, little is known about the characteristics of this ... -
Using network mesures to test evolved NK-landscapes
In this paper we empirically investigate which are the structural characteristics that can help to predict the complexity of NK-landscape instances for estimation of distribution algorithms. To this end, we evolve instances ...
