....pressure (middle graph) and multiple pressures (right graph) 4.4 Fitness Landscape: information contents A rugged landscape is expected to have large fitness values between neighborhood points while a smooth landscape will have small di#erences in the fitness values. In this section, we employ [11] information theoretic measures for analyzing the fitness landscape. We use three measures defined in [11] the information content, the partial information content, and the information stability. The first measure provides an insight into the variety of shapes on, or local neighborhood of, the ....

....A rugged landscape is expected to have large fitness values between neighborhood points while a smooth landscape will have small di#erences in the fitness values. In this section, we employ [11] information theoretic measures for analyzing the fitness landscape. We use three measures defined in [11]; the information content, the partial information content, and the information stability. The first measure provides an insight into the variety of shapes on, or local neighborhood of, the landscape. The second measure gives an insight into the modality of the path. The third measure captures the ....

....output connectivity landscapes. The information structure is studied by measuring the information characteristics on three random walks, a random walk per configuration space. It has been shown that the information analysis can reveal aspects smoothness, ruggedness, and neutrality of landscapes [27, 14], and it is implemented by measuring the information functions 7 associated with the first and second entropic measures respectively (see [14] The measured functions are depicted in Figure 8. The figure reveals that the structure of the fitness landscapes for both scenarios, non scaled and ....

....and output connectivity landscapes. It was also found that the neutrality of the output connectivity landscapes was more strongly dominated by the landscape ruggedness than that found in the functionality landscapes. These findings were revealed by studying the information characteristics [33] of time series obtained via random walks with respect the three subspaces. An interesting issue related to the role of neutrality in the evolution of digital circuits is the relation between the size and the height of the landscape plateaus. It is believed that the neutral walks are longer at a ....

.... . We use this parameter in order to assess the information function H( and to estimate the information stability of the landscape. For us the information stability, is the smallest value of for which S( is a string of 0s. For further details of the analysis we refer to (Vassilev and Fogarty, 1998). 3 The Two Bit Multiplier Landscapes We consider a genotype representation of an idealised field programmable gate array (n rows, m columns, n I inputs, nO outputs) based on that proposed in (Miller and Thomson, 1998a) The genotype is a composition of three chromosomes (partitions) which are ....
