The Link and Node Biased Encoding Revisited: Bias and Adjustment of Parameters

When using gentic and evolutionary algorithms (GEAs) for the optimal communication spanning problem, the design of a suitable tree network encoding is crucial for finding good solutions. The link and node biased (LNB) encoding represents the structure of a tree network using a weighted vector and allows the GEA to distinguish between the importance of the nodes and links in the network.
