In this paper, we describe a new algorithm that consists in combining an eye-tracker for minimizing the fatigue of a user during the evaluation process of Interactive Evolutionary Computation. The approach is then applied to the Interactive OneMax optimization problem.

Fitness assignment is one of the biggest challenges in evolutionary art. Interactive evolutionary computation approaches put a significant burden on the user, leading to human fatigue. On the other hand, autonomous evolutionary art systems usually fail to give the users the opportunity to express and convey their artistic goals and preferences. Our approach empowers the users by allowing them t...

Biological and artificial evolutionary systems exhibit varying degrees of evolvability and different rates of evolution. Such quantities can be affected by various factors. Here, we review some evolutionary mechanisms and discuss new developments in biology that can potentially improve evolvability or accelerate evolution in artificial systems. Biological notions are discussed to the degree the...

in this paper an approach based on evolutionary algorithms to find pareto optimal pair of state and control for multi-objective optimal control problems (moocp)'s is introduced‎. ‎in this approach‎, ‎first a discretized form of the time-control space is considered and then‎, ‎a piecewise linear control and a piecewise linear trajectory are obtained from the discretized time-control space using ...

background: professionalism is an important feature of the professional jobs. dynamic nature and the various interpretations of thisterm lead to multiple defi nitions of this concept. the aim of this paper is to identify the core attributes of the nursing professionalism. materials and methods: we followed rodgers’ evolutionary method of concept analysis. texts published in scientifi c database...

in this paper, lift and drag coefficients were numerically investigated using numeca software in a set of 4-digit naca airfoils. two metamodels based on the evolved group method of data handling (gmdh) type neural networks were then obtained for modeling both lift coefficient (cl) and drag coefficient (cd) with respect to the geometrical design parameters. after using such obtained polynomial n...

‎Financial market modeling and prediction is a difficult problem and drastic changes of the price causes nonlinear dynamic that makes the price prediction one of the most challenging tasks for economists‎. ‎Since markets always have been interesting for traders‎, ‎many traders with various beliefs are highly active in a market‎. ‎The competition among two agents of traders‎, ‎namely trend follo...

There are different views on the relationship between language and culture. Some consider them as separate entities one being a code-system and the other a system of beliefs and attitudes. Some believe in a cause and effect relationship between the two; and yet others argue for a co-evolutionary mode of interrelation. This paper will subscribe to the Hallidayan co-evolutionary view of the relat...

up to now, studies of mirza agha tabrizi's works (a pioneer of iranian drama) have been carried out from the perspective of the evolutionary history of drama in iran. but this paper explores the enlightening aspects of these texts about social life in iran before the constitutional revolution. furthermore, the present study discovers a potentially aesthetic revolution in these works. by ma...
