Policy makers constantly face optimal control problems: what controls allow to achieve certain targets in, e.g., GDP growth or inflation? Conventionally this is done by applying certain linear- quadratic optimization algorithms to dynamic econometric models. Several algorithms extend this...

The edge-set encoding is a direct encoding for trees which directly representstrees as sets of edges. In contrast to indirect representations, whereusually standard operators are applied to a list of strings and the resultingphenotype is constructed by an appropriate genotype-phenotypemapping,...
