Pending uploading of my 2008 lecture notes, here are the lectures from the 2007 CSSS Beijing:

Additional Reading

  • Altenberg, L. , 1994. The Schema Theorem and Price's Theorem delves into the claims about schema processing as the source of power in genetic algorithms, and recasts the Schema Theorem (Holland 1975) by using Price's Theorem (1970). It is shown that the Schema Theorem says nothing about a GA's power, but a modification with a different measurement function produces a theorem about evolvability that is a local measure of GA power. The concept of rugged landscapes is also deconstructed in terms of operator-defined distance.
