Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) are the principal focus of research study in Evolutionary Computing (EC). In EC, naturally occurring processes designed to drive success in nature are simulated for a similar purpose in numerical optimisation. Such proce...

Generating easy and hard problems using the proximate optimality principle. [Dataset] (2015)
Data
MCCALL, J.A.W., CHRISTIE, L.A. and BROWNLEE, A.E.I. 2015. Generating easy and hard problems using the proximate optimality principle. [Dataset]

These data were gathered to investigate the hypothesis that coherent functions will be easy and anti-coherent functions will be hard for a hillclimber. We generated 10 coherent functions for each length on bit-strings of length 6-100 and the same num... Read More about Generating easy and hard problems using the proximate optimality principle.
