Reviews for Foundations of Generic Optimization
From the reviews: "This book deals with combinatorial aspects of epistasis, especially normalized epistasis, a concept that exists in genetics and evolutionary algorithms. It starts with the theory of evolutionary algorithms. This illustrative introduction makes the book readable independent on other textbooks. … The book is very well written and presents many important and useful ... Read more
