Impact of selection methods on the diversity of many-objective Pareto set approximations (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Martí, L., Segredo, E., Sánchez-Pi, N., & Hart, E. (2017). Impact of selection methods on the diversity of many-objective Pareto set approximations. Procedia Computer Science, 112, 844-853. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.procs.2017.08.077

Selection methods are a key component of all multi-objective and, consequently, many-objective optimisation evolutionary algorithms. They must perform two main tasks simultaneously. First of all, they must select individuals that are as close as poss... Read More about Impact of selection methods on the diversity of many-objective Pareto set approximations.

The importance of the individual encoding in memetic algorithms with diversity control applied to large Sudoku puzzles (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Segura, C., Segredo, E., & Miranda, G. (2017). The importance of the individual encoding in memetic algorithms with diversity control applied to large Sudoku puzzles. In 2017 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC). https://doi.org/10.1109/CEC.20

In recent years, several memetic algorithms with explicit mechanisms to delay convergence have shown great promise when solving 9x9 Sudoku puzzles. This paper analyzes and extends state-of-the-art schemes for dealing with Sudoku puzzles of larger dim...

On the comparison of initialisation strategies in differential evolution for large scale optimisation (2017)
Journal Article
Segredo, E., Paechter, B., Segura, C., & González-Vila, C. I. (2018). On the comparison of initialisation strategies in differential evolution for large scale optimisation. Optimization Letters, 12(1), 221-234. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11590-017-1107-z

Differential Evolution (DE) has shown to be a promising global opimisation solver for continuous problems, even for those with a large dimensionality. Different previous works have studied the effects that a population initialisation strategy has on...
