Abstract: In the context of increasing reliance on computer networks, this study proposes an improved genetic algorithm (IGA) to address limitations of traditional methods in optimizing network ...

Genetic algorithms (GAs) are a class of population-based metaheuristic search methods inspired by principles of natural selection and evolution. They solve complex optimisation problems by encoding ...

Foundational optimization algorithms are the core driving force behind deep learning, evolving from early stochastic gradient descent (SGD) to the widely adopted Adam family. However, as the scale of ...
