Guest editorial: hybrid systems, part I

We consider it a great privilege to introduce this two-part issue on Hybrid Systems to Discrete Event Dynamic Systems: Theory and Applications. Hybrid dynamical systems constitute an abstract modeling framework for systems with bi-layer dynamics: time-driven dynamics at the lower layer, and discrete-event dynamics at the upper layer. This framework provides useful analysis techniques and simula...

Neural Sufficiency, Reductionism, and Cognitive Neuropsychiatry

Editorial: in praise of cognitive neuropsychiatry.

I wonder if the readers of this journal remember that time, not so long ago, when functional psychoses such as schizophrenia had nothing to do with the brain? This belief was not limited to antipsychiatrists such as Szasz. When my colleague, psychiatrist Eve Johnstone, published her classic paper in 1976 in the Lancet demonstrating enlarged ventricles in association with chronic schizophrenia (...

The Multi-objective Variable Metric Evolution Strategy, Part I

The covariance matrix adaptation evolution strategy (CMA-ES) is one of the most powerful evolutionary algorithms for real-valued single-objective optimization. Here a variant of the CMA-ES for multi-objective optimization (MOO) is developed. First a single-objective, elitist CMA-ES using plus-selection and step size control based on a success rule is introduced. This algorithm is compared to th...
