  • Runtime Analysis of the ( μ +1) EA on Simple Pseudo-Boolean Functions (188 citations)
  • Tight Bounds on the Optimization Time of a Randomized Search Heuristic on Linear Functions (163 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His main research concerns Evolutionary algorithm, Mathematical optimization, Algorithm, Heuristics and Function. Carsten Witt combines subjects such as Time complexity, Local search, Mutation, Benchmark and Evolutionary computation with his study of Evolutionary algorithm. His study in the field of Ant colony optimization algorithms, Optimization problem, Combinatorial optimization and Search algorithm also crosses realms of Simple.

Population size is closely connected to Crossover in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Algorithm. His work on Randomized search as part of general Heuristics study is frequently connected to Variable, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. He has researched Function in several fields, including Fitness function, Combinatorics, Estimation of distribution algorithm, Exponential function and Upper and lower bounds.
