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:

    “We are in the process of creating what deserves to be called the idiot culture. Not an idiot sub-culture, which every society has bubbling beneath the surface and which can provide harmless fun; but the culture itself. For the first time, the weird and the stupid and the coarse are becoming our cultural norm, even our cultural ideal.”
    —Carl Bernstein (b. 1944)
