EDA tutorial on slideshare.net
July 26th, 2007I just put my estimation of distribution algorithms tutorial slides (usually presented at GECCO) on slideshare.net, check them out:
I also put some other GECCO-2007 presentations online:
Most MEDAL presentations can also be downloaded here.

Hi!
Very nice presentations! :)
Congratulations!
I have some questions:
01. How would hBOA perform when dealing with a problem that has strong interdependencies among its variables?
02. What are “nearly decomposable problems”? Would it be problems that have some interdependencies among their variables, but also exhibit decomposable features?
03. On a non-decomposable problem, how would the hierarchical solving inherent to hBOA perform? What about a problem in which all the variables are dependent on each other?
04. How to know/discover that a problem can be solved hierarchically?
05. Is hBOA rotationally invariant w.r.t. the coordinate system?
Thank You!
Até Mais!

Hi Marcelo,
for the first four questions, I’d suggest to look at some BOA or hBOA papers and related work. Regarding the last question, I don’t think this question is relevant when we talk about discrete representations.

Hi, Martin!
Thank you for your suggestion for the first four questions.

Helpful information…I was looking for such algorithms..thanks
