Abstract
Software designers and developers face many problems in designing, building, deploying, and maintaining cutting-edge software applications–reliability,security,performance,power,legacy code,use of multi-core platforms,and maintenance are just a few of the issues that must be considered. Many of these issues are fundamental parts of the grand challenges in computer science such as reliability and security.

The Factorized Distribution Algorithm and the Minimum Relative Entropy Principle

Authors: Heinz Mühlenbein and Robin Höns

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6061, Theory of Evolutionary Algorithms (2006)


Abstract
We assume that the function to be optimized is additively decomposed (ADF). Then the interaction graph $G_{ADF}$ can be used to compute exact or approximate factorizations. For many practical problems only approximate factorizations lead to efficient optimization algorithms. The relation between the approximation used by the FDA algorithm and the minimum relative entropy principle is discussed. A new algorithm is presented, derived from the Bethe-Kikuchi approach in statistical physics. It minimizes the relative entropy to a Boltzmann distribution with fixed $eta$. We shortly compare different factorizations and algorithms within the FDA software. We use 2-d Ising spin glass problems and Kaufman's n-k function as examples.
