Genetic algorithms borrow their name and principles from biological evolution, but can they help researchers discover the fundamentals of life? Evolution is one of the most widely known theories in ...

The optimisation of process planning has emerged as a pivotal aspect of modern manufacturing, where genetic algorithms (GAs) and hybrid techniques are leveraged to address the combinatorial complexity ...

Climate change has necessitated the development of "green" alternatives to replace existing materials. This focus has resulted in the push toward fabricating natural fiber-reinforced polymer ...

A new algorithm developed by researchers at Columbia University can analyze thousands of variants across the genome and estimate a person's risk of developing chronic kidney disease -- and it works in ...

There are several techniques that can be used to select relatively good parent solutions from a population of solutions. Experience with genetic algorithms has shown that it's better to select two ...

Up to 40% of rare diseases show facial alterations that enable researchers to identify some pathologies and they can even help them to establish an early diagnosis. Historically, the visual evaluation ...

Proteogenomics explores how genetic information translates into protein expression and function, and the role of changes across DNA, RNA, and proteins in influencing disease development and ...

We describe a genetic algorithm (GA) for designing efficient search paths, against a moving target, in complicated environments. The immediate application is acoustic search for submarines, but the ...
