We analyse a model consisting of a population of individuals which is subdivided into a finite set of demes, each of which has a fixed but differing number of individuals. The individuals can reproduce, die and migrate between the demes…
In distributed evolutionary algorithms, migration interval is used to decide migration moments. Nevertheless, migration moments predetermined by intervals cannot match the dynamic situation of evolution. In this paper, a scheme of setting…
Geographic isolation is a central mechanism of speciation, but perfect isolation of populations is rare. Although speciation can be hindered if gene flow is large, intermediate levels of migration can enhance speciation by introducing…
The optimization of dynamic problems is both widespread and difficult. When conducting dynamic optimization, a balance between reinitialization and computational expense has to be found. There are multiple approaches to this. In parallel…
We develop a novel dynamical method to examine spatial interaction models (SIMs). For each SIM, we use our dynamical framework to model emigration patterns. We look at the resulting population distributions to see if they are realistic or…
We consider a population constituted by two types of individuals; each of them can produce offspring in two different islands (as a particular case the islands can be interpreted as active or dormant individuals). We model the evolution of…
The subpopulationtion shift, characterized by a disparity in subpopulation distributibetween theween the training and target datasets, can significantly degrade the performance of machine learning models. Current solutions to subpopulation…
This paper proposes a methodology for enhancing power systems resiliency by proactively splitting an interconnected grid into small self-sustaining islands in preparation for extreme events. The idea is to posture the system so that…
This paper explores an idealized dynamic population sizing strategy for solving additive decomposable problems of uniform scale. The method is designed on top of the foundations of existing population sizing theory for this class of…
In this paper, we propose a new method for offline change-point detection on some parameters of the distribution of a random vector. We introduce a penalized maximum likelihood approach that can be efficiently computed by a dynamic…
We study a dynamic model of ecosystems where immigration plays an essential role both in assembling the species community and in mantaining its biodiversity. This framework is particularly relevant for insular ecosystems. Population…
Genetic algorithm (GA) is a stochastic metaheuristic process consisting on the evolution of a population of candidate solutions for a given optimization problem. By extension, multipopulation genetic algorithm (MPGA) aims for efficiency by…
In real life, mostly problems are dynamic. Many algorithms have been proposed to handle the static problems, but these algorithms do not handle or poorly handle the dynamic environment problems. Although, many algorithms have been proposed…
In this paper, a novel cluster-based approach for optimizing the energy efficiency of wireless small cell networks is proposed. A dynamic mechanism based on the spectral clustering technique is proposed to dynamically form clusters of small…
Introducing more Distributed Generation (DG) into power grid infrastructure drives more attention to understand how large scale DG affects grid operation. Islanding is an important concern in this area. Islanding refers to the condition…
The problem of partitioning a power grid into a set of islands can be a solution to restore power dispatchment in sections of a grid affected by an extreme failure. Current solutions to this problem usually involve finding the partition of…
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in data-driven evolutionary algorithms (DDEAs) employing surrogate models to approximate the objective functions with limited data. However, current DDEAs are primarily designed for…
The search ability of an Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) depends on the variation among the individuals in the population [3, 4, 8]. Maintaining an optimal level of diversity in the EA population is imperative to ensure that progress of the EA…
Disturbances may create cascading failures in power systems and lead to widespread blackouts. Controlled islanding is an effective approach to mitigate cascading failures by partitioning the power system into a set of disjoint islands. To…
Populations of species in ecosystems are often constrained by availability of resources within their environment. In effect this means that a growth of one population, needs to be balanced by comparable reduction in populations of others.…
