A Novel Crossover Operator for Genetic Algorithms: Ring Crossover

CoRR, 2011
The genetic algorithm (GA) is an optimization and search technique based on the principles of genetics and natural selection. A GA allows a population composed of many individuals to evolve under specified selection rules to a state that maximizes the "fitness" function. In that process, crossover operator plays an important role. To comprehend the GAs

Ferromagnetism of Molecular Beam Epitaxy‐grown Ultra‐thin Cr2Ge2Te6 Films Down to the Monolayer Limit on Si Substrates

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Uniform monolayer Cr2Ge2Te6 films are achieved on Si substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. Intrinsic ferromagnetism with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy is established in the films by anomalous Hall effect and superconducting quantum interference device measurements, albeit with strong magnetic fluctuations characteristic of its 2D nature.

Crossover promotion and prevention

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2006
Homologous recombination is an important mechanism for the repair of double-strand breaks in DNA. One possible outcome of such repair is the reciprocal exchange or crossing over of DNA between chromosomes. Crossovers are beneficial during meiosis because, as well as generating genetic diversity, they promote proper chromosome segregation through the ...

Genetic and physical interactions reveal overlapping and distinct contributions to meiotic double-strand break formation in C. elegans

eLife
Double-strand breaks (DSBs) are the most deleterious lesions experienced by our genome. Yet, DSBs are intentionally induced during gamete formation to promote the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes.
