Extending Genetic Algorithms with Biological Life-Cycle Dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesBiomimetics
In this paper, we aim to enhance genetic algorithms (GAs) by integrating a dynamic model based on biological life cycles. This study addresses the challenge of maintaining diversity and adaptability in GAs by incorporating stages of birth, growth ...

Optimisation of the weighting functions of an H∞ controller using genetic algorithms and structured genetic algorithms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In this paper the optimisation of the weighting functions for an H<sub>∞</sub> controller using genetic algorithms and structured genetic algorithms is considered. The choice of the weighting functions is one of the key steps in the design of

Recombination and Self-Adaptation in Multi-objective Genetic Algorithms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This paper investigates the influence of recombination and self-adaptation in real-encoded Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithms (MOGAs). NSGA-II and SPEA2 are used as example to characterize the efficiency of MOGAs in relation to various recombination ...

Niching genetic algorithms for optimization in electromagnetics. I. Fundamentals [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Niching methods extend genetic algorithms and permit the investigation of multiple optimal solutions in the search space. In this paper, we review and discuss various strategies of niching for optimization in electromagnetics.

Fast genetic algorithms

open access: yesProceedings of the Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference, 2017
For genetic algorithms using a bit-string representation of length~$n$, the general recommendation is to take $1/n$ as mutation rate. In this work, we discuss whether this is really justified for multimodal functions. Taking jump functions and the $(1+1)$ evolutionary algorithm as the simplest example, we observe that larger mutation rates give ...

Death in Genetic Algorithms

open access: yesCoRR, 2021
Death has long been overlooked in evolutionary algorithms. Recent research has shown that death (when applied properly) can benefit the overall fitness of a population and can outperform sub-sections of a population that are "immortal" when allowed to evolve together in an environment [1].

RGFGA: An efficient representation and crossover for grouping genetic algorithms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
There is substantial research into genetic algorithms that are used to group large numbers of objects into mutually exclusive subsets based upon some fitness function. However, nearly all methods involve degeneracy to some degree.

Hierarchical Crossover in Genetic Algorithms [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
This paper identifies the limitations of conventional crossover in genetic algorithms when operating on two chromosomes of differing lengths. To address these problems, the concept of a Semantic Hierarchy (i.e.
