Human-based Genetic Algorithm - Differences From A Plain Genetic Algorithm

Differences From A Plain Genetic Algorithm

  • All four genetic operators (initialization, mutation, crossover, and selection) can be delegated to humans using appropriate interfaces (Kosorukoff, 2001).
  • Initialization is treated as an operator, rather than a phase of the algorithm. This allows a HBGA to start with an empty population. Initialization, mutation, and crossover operators form the group of innovation operators.
  • Choice of genetic operator may be delegated to humans as well, so they are not forced to perform a particular operation at any given moment.

Famous quotes containing the words differences, plain and/or genetic:

    “I trust the time is nigh when, with the universal assent of civilized people, all international differences shall be determined without resort to arms by the benignant processes of civilization.”
    —Chester A. Arthur (1829–1886)

    “It is plain and demonstrable, that much ale is not good for Yankee, and operates differently upon them from what it does upon a Briton; ale must be drank in a fog and a drizzle.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “Nature, we are starting to realize, is every bit as important as nurture. Genetic influences, brain chemistry, and neurological development contribute strongly to who we are as children and what we become as adults. For example, tendencies to excessive worrying or timidity, leadership qualities, risk taking, obedience to authority, all appear to have a constitutional aspect.”
    —Stanley Turecki (20th century)
