Tackling Real-Coded Genetic Algorithms: Operators and Tools for Behavioural Analysis

摘要

Genetic algorithms play a significant role, as search techniques forhandling complex spaces, in many fields such as artificial intelligence, engineering, robotic, etc. Genetic algorithms are based on the underlying genetic process in biological organisms and on the naturalevolution principles of populations. These algorithms process apopulation of chromosomes, which represent search space solutions,with three operations: selection, crossover and mutation.
