Evolutionary Demographic Algorithms
Most of the problems in genetic algorithms are very complex and demand a large amount of resources that current technology can not offer. Our purpose was to develop a Java-JINI distributed library that implements Genetic Algorithms with sub-populations (coarse grain) and a graphical interface in order to configure and follow the evolution of the search. The sub-populations are simulated/evaluated in personal computers connected trough a network, keeping in mind different models of sub-populations, migration policies and network topologies. We show that this model delays the convergence of the population keeping a higher level of genetic diversity and allows a much greater number of evaluations since they are distributed among several computers compared with the traditional Genetic Algorithms.

Stochastic evolutionary games in dynamic populations
Frequency dependent selection and demographic fluctuations play important roles in evolutionary and ecological processes. Under frequency dependent selection, the average fitness of the population may increase or decreas…
Evolutionary games on cycles with strong selection
Evolutionary games on graphs describe how strategic interactions and population structure determine evolutionary success, quantified by the probability that a single mutant takes over a population. Graph structures, comp…
Eco-Evolutionary Dynamics of a Population with Randomly Switching Carrying Capacity
Environmental variability greatly influences the eco-evolutionary dynamics of a population, i.e. it affects how its size and composition evolve. Here, we study a well-mixed population of finite and fluctuating size whose…
Diverse Group Formation Based on Multiple Demographic Features
The goal of group formation is to build a team to accomplish a specific task. Algorithms are employed to improve the effectiveness of the team so formed and the efficiency of the group selection process. However, there i…
DiversityEvolutionary accumulation modelling in AMR: machine learning to infer and predict evolutionary dynamics of multi-drug resistance
Can we understand and predict the evolutionary pathways by which bacteria acquire multi-drug resistance (MDR)? These questions have substantial potential impact in basic biology and in applied approaches to address the g…
