@article{DLHP2005, _day = {25}, abstract = {This paper proposes an incremental approach for building solutions using evolutionary computation. It presents a simple evolutionary model called a Transition model. It lets building units of a solution interact and then uses an evolutionary process to merge these units toward a full solution for the problem at hand. The paper provides a preliminary study on the evolutionary dynamics of this model as well as an empirical comparison with other evolutionary techniques on binary constraint satisfaction.}, author = {A Defaweux and T Lenaerts and van Hemert, J and J Parent}, date-added = {2008-08-18 12:44:11 +0100}, date-modified = {2008-08-18 12:44:11 +0100}, editor = {H-G Beyer et al.}, journal = {Genetic and Evolutionary Computation}, keywords = {constraint satisfaction; evolutionary computation}, pages = {599--606}, pdf = {http://www.vanhemert.co.uk/publications/gecco2005-Transition_Models_as_an_incremental_approach_for_problem_solving_in_Evolutionary_Algorithms.pdf}, publisher = {{ACM} Press}, title = {Transition Models as an incremental approach for problem solving in Evolutionary Algorithms}, volume = {7}, year = {2005}}
