Abstract

A new approach of probabilistic modeling used in Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) based on Copula theory is described. By means of copulas it is possible to separate the structure of dependence from the marginal distributions in a joint distribution. Two- dimensional Gaussian copula is depicted in more details including the sampling of the copula based on the conditional probabillity density function. The use of copulas for modeling joint distributions in EDAs is illustrated on several benchmarks.
