The Evolution of Gennetic Algorithms: Towards Massive Parallelism

چکیده

One of the issues in creating any search technique is balancing the need for diverse exploration with the desire for efficient focusing. This paper explores a genetic algorithm (GA) architecture which is more resilient to local optima than other recently introduced GA models. and which provides the ability to focus search quickly. The GA uses a fine-grain parallel architecture to simulate evolution more closely than previous models. In order to motivate the need for fine-grain parallelism, this paper will provide an overview of the two preceding phases of development: the traditional genetic algorithm, and the coarse-grain parallel GA. A test set of 15 problems is used to compare the effectiveness of a fine-grain parallel GA with that of a coarse-grain parallel GA.

Increasing the Accuracy of Recommender Systems Using the Combination of K-Means and Differential Evolution Algorithms

Recommender systems are the systems that try to make recommendations to each user based on performance, personal tastes, user behaviors, and the context that match their personal preferences and help them in the decision-making process. One of the most important subjects regarding these systems is to increase the system accuracy which means how much the recommendations are close to the user int...

Massive Parallelization of Divide-and-Conquer Algorithms over Powerlists

problem adequate structure powerlists We present transformation rules to parallelize Divide-and-Conquer (DC) algorithms over powerlists. These rules convert the parallel control structure of DC into a sequential control flow, thereby making the implicit massive data parallelism in a DC scheme explicit. The results given here are illustrated by many examples including Fast Fourier Transform and ...

A Study of the Role of Repetition of Music in the Nimayee Poems of Akhavan Sales

In this article, the aim of the authors is to study the role of repetition in creating music and parallelism in Nimayee poems in the three collections of poems by Mehdi Akhavan Sales: Zamestan, Akhere Shahname and Az Avesta. Accordingly, the researchers have investigated the various manners of repetition in creating parallelism in the poems at three levels: phonological parallelism, lexical par...
