Evolutionary Computation • Inspired by Darwin’s theory of natural selection and survival of the fittest and Mendel’s laws of heredity (genetics) • A population of individuals in an environment becomes a set of trial solutions for a problem • Fitness indicates quality of solution • Genes represented by a data type
Example problem Given the function f(x,y) = x2y + 5xy -3xy2 -5 <= x <= 5 and -5 <= y <= 5 for what integer values of x and y is f(x,y) minimal?
Evolutionary Algorithm (1) • Trial solution: (x,y) • Genes represented by integers • Fitness function: -f(x,y) • Population size: 4 • Number of offspring: 2 • Competition: remove the 2 individuals with the lowest fitness value
Evolutionary Algorithm (2) • Selection: in first step select with 50% chance fittest individual, in second step with 50% second fittest individual, etc. If no individuals selected, select fittest. Genetic operators: • 1-point crossover with 50% chance • single unit increment or decrement mutation with 50% chance
