| Research Abstract |
We have developed a series of evolutionary algorithms such as BOA-MD, an extension of BOA introducing mixture distributions, BHCS by combining BOA with local search, ARGA and BRGA for MINLP (Mixed-Interger Non-Linear Programming). We also developed large-scale parallel evolutionary algorithms in a many core architecture and cloud computing environment.
As applications to real-world problems, we applied evolutionary algorithms to optimal resource allocation problem in cloud computing environment as a MINLP problem, de novo ligand docking problems to find promising structures of medicines automatically, and so on, to show the effectiveness of our approach.
