Genetic search over probability spaces

چکیده
This paper proposes two new crossover operators for searching over discrete probability spaces. The design of the operators is considered in the light of recent theoretical insights into genetic search provided by forma analysis. A nontrivial test problem in enforcing coherency of probability estimates in cross-impact analysis highlights the utility of the designed operators. The presented operators will be useful for a variety of probability-fitting and optimization applications. 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Crossover in Probability Spaces
This paper proposes a new crossover operator for searching over discrete probability spaces.

متن کاملUSING LATIN HYPERCUBE SAMPLING BASED ON THE ANN-HPSOGA MODEL FOR ESTIMATION OF THE CREATION PROBABILITY OF DAMAGED ZONE AROUND UNDERGROUND SPACES
The excavation damaged zone (EDZ) can be defined as a rock zone where the rock properties and conditions have been changed due to the processes related to an excavation. This zone affects the behavior of rock mass surrounding the construction that reduces the stability and safety factor and increase probability of failure of the structure. In this paper, a methodology was examined for computing...
متن کاملAPPLICATION OF THE HYBRID HARMONY SEARCH WITH SUPPORT VECTOR MACHINE FOR IDENTIFICATION AND CALSSIFICATION OF DAMAGED ZONE AROUND UNDERGROUND SPACES
An excavation damage zone (EDZ) can be defined as a rock zone where the rock properties and conditions have been changed due to the processes related to an excavation. This zone affects the behavior of rock mass surrounding the construction that reduces the stability and safety factor and increase probability of failure of the structure. This paper presents an approach to build a model for the ...
متن کاملProbabilistic analysis of the asymmetric digital search trees
In this paper, by applying three functional operators the previous results on the (Poisson) variance of the external profile in digital search trees will be improved. We study the profile built over $n$ binary strings generated by a memoryless source with unequal probabilities of symbols and use a combinatorial approach for studying the Poissonized variance, since the probability distribution o...
متن کاملUsing and comparing metaheuristic algorithms for optimizing bidding strategy viewpoint of profit maximization of generators
With the formation of the competitive electricity markets in the world, optimization of bidding strategies has become one of the main discussions in studies related to market designing. Market design is challenged by multiple objectives that need to be satisfied. The solution of those multi-objective problems is searched often over the combined strategy space, and thus requires the simultaneous...
