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:

    “The men who are messing up their lives, their families, and their world in their quest to feel man enough are not exercising true masculinity, but a grotesque exaggeration of what they think a man is. When we see men overdoing their masculinity, we can assume that they haven’t been raised by men, that they have taken cultural stereotypes literally, and that they are scared they aren’t being manly enough.”
    —Frank Pittman (20th century)
