Efficient Estimation of Distribution Algorithms by Using the Empirical Selection Distribution
S. Ivvan, Arturo Hernndez, Salvador Botello · InTech eBooks · 2010
EDAs researchers have approximated the selection distribution since the first approaches (Mühlenbein, 1997; Bosman & Thierens, 2000). This chapter proposes a general method for this purpose. Most of the search distributions used by EDAs are parametric, and the
