Cultural Algorithm - Pseudo-code For Cultural Algorithms

Pseudo-code For Cultural Algorithms

  1. Initialize population space (choose initial population)
  2. Initialize belief space (e.g. set domain specific knowledge and normative value-ranges)
  3. Repeat until termination condition is met
    1. Perform actions of the individuals in population space
    2. Evaluate each individual by using the fitness function
    3. Select the parents to reproduce a new generation of offspring
    4. Let the belief space alter the genome of the offspring by using the influence function
    5. Update the belief space by using the accept function (this is done by letting the best individuals to affect the belief space)

Famous quotes containing the word cultural:

    “Unfortunately there is still a cultural stereotype that it’s all right for girls to be affectionate but that once boys reach six or seven, they no longer need so much hugging and kissing. What this does is dissuade boys from expressing their natural feelings of tenderness and affection. It is important that we act affectionately with our sons as well as our daughters.”
    —Stephanie Martson (20th century)
