Clonal selection in arracacha breeding

On clonal selection

Clonal selection has been a dominant theme in many immune-inspired algorithms applied to machine learning and optimisation. We examine existing clonal selections algorithms for learning from a theoretical and empirical perspective and assert that the widely accepted computational interpretation of clonal selection is compromised both algorithmically and biologically. We suggest a more capable a...

Diversifying Selection in Plant Breeding

Open access, freely available online " Some qualities nature carefully fi xes and transmits, but some, and those the fi ner, she exhales with the breath of the individual as too costly to perpetuate. But I notice also that they may become fi xed and permanent in any stock, by painting and repainting them on every individual, until at last nature adopts them and bakes them into her porcelain " —...

Novel Clonal Selection Algorithm Improving Selection Operator

To optimize the search of the clonal selection algorithm for the optimal solution, the selection operator is improved and a novel clonal selection algorithm is designed. The selection operator is compared with such selection operators as Roulette Wheel Selection operator, Tournament Selection operator, and Sampling Selection operator. The selection operator is improved to increase the accuracy ...

Realizing Elementary Clonal Selection Algorithms

A series of acquired immunity inspired clonal selection models have previously been proposed that includes principle model components and base (single repertoire) models. Also previously proposed is a contrived problem domain called ‘colour space’ and a number of scenarios intended for the investigation of adaptive models. This work units these two (until now) isolated streams of work by realiz...
