• abstract = "The HFC model for evolutionary computation is inspired by the stratified competition often seen in society and biology. Subpopulations are stratified by fitness. Individuals move from low-fitness subpopulations to higher-fitness subpopulations if and only if they exceed the fitness-based admission threshold of the receiving subpopulation, but not of a higher one. HFC's balanced exploration and exploitation, while avoiding premature convergence, is shown on a genetic programming example.",
