Exploiting the analogy between the immune system and sparse distributed memory.

Journal Article
Hart, E., & Ross, P. (2002)
Exploiting the analogy between the immune system and sparse distributed memory. Genetic Programming and Evolvable Machines, 4(4), 333-358. doi:10.1023/a:1026191011609
The relationship between immunological memory and a class of associative memories known as sparse distributed memories (SDM) is well known. This paper proposes a new model for...

Hyper-heuristics: learning to combine simple heuristics in bin-packing problems.

Conference Proceeding
Ross, P., Schulenburg, S., Marin-Blazquez, J. G. & Hart, E. (2002)
Hyper-heuristics: learning to combine simple heuristics in bin-packing problems. ISBN 1558608788
Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) often appear to be a ‘black box’, neither offering worst-case bounds nor any guarantee of optimality when used to solve individual problems. They...

How affinity influences tolerance in an idiotypic network.

Journal Article
