Simulating Gender Separation and Mating Constraints for Genetic Algorithms
نویسنده
چکیده
This report presents a model for simulating various reproduction modes and types restrictions from nature with the genetic algorithms. We consider three reproduction modes, which are self-fertilizing, hermaphrodite excluding self fertilization, and with two differentiated gender types (male and female). We start with a model in which the reproduction mode evolves along with the rest of the genotype. Next, we compare the performance of the reproduction modes we have introduced and study the influence of the population size on their performance. Finally, we introduce some mating restrictions similar to the natural geographical and social limitations and study their influence on the performance of each reproduction mode.

A New School Bus Routing Problem Considering Gender Separation, Special Students and Mix Loading: A Genetic Algorithm Approach
In developing countries, whereas the urban bus network is a major part of public transportation system, it is necessary to try to find the best design and routing for bus network. Optimum design of school bus routes is very important. Non-optimal solutions for this problem may increase traveling time, fuel consumption, and depreciation rate of the fleet. A new bus routing problem is presented i...
متن کاملSimulating Gender Separation With Genetic Algorithms
Gender separation is a largely encountered in the natural systems that allows the preservation of the genetic diversity in a species. In this paper, we want to analyse the mechanism by which this reproduction mode may have evolved and the way it in uences the evolution of a population toward an optimal individual.
متن کاملResearch of Blind Signals Separation with Genetic Algorithm and Particle Swarm Optimization Based on Mutual Information
Blind source separation technique separates mixed signals blindly without any information on the mixing system. In this paper, we have used two evolutionary algorithms, namely, genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization for blind source separation. In these techniques a novel fitness function that is based on the mutual information and high order statistics is proposed. In order to evalu...

متن کاملGendered Selection Strategies in Genetic Algorithms for Optimization
The selection operator in the standard genetic algorithm (GA) determines which individuals are chosen from a relatively homologous population for mating and crossover. This operator is crucial for the performance of the GA, since it may lead the algorithm to premature convergence and limited search scope (or genetic diversity) by repeatedly choosing very strong individuals with similar genetic ...
