Maximally rugged NK landscapes contain the highest peaks

NK models provide a family of tunably rugged fitness landscapes used in a wide range of evolutionary computation studies. It is well known that the average height of local optima regresses to the mean of the landscape with increasing epistasis, K. This fact has been confirmed using both theoretical...
