The Microbial Genetic Algorithm

نویسنده

  • Inman Harvey
چکیده

We analyse how the conventional Genetic Algorithm can be stripped down and reduced to its basics. We present a minimal, modified version that can be interpreted in terms of horizontal gene transfer, as in bacterial conjugation. Whilst its functionality is effectively similar to the conventional version, it is much easier to program, and recommended for both teaching purposes and practical applications. Despite the simplicity of the core code, it effects Selection, (variable rates of) Recombination, Mutation, Elitism (‘for free’) and Geographical Distribution.

Genetic algorithm for Echo cancelling

In this paper, echo cancellation is done using genetic algorithm (GA). The genetic algorithm is implemented by two kinds of crossovers; heuristic and microbial. A new procedure is proposed to estimate the coefficients of adaptive filters used in echo cancellation with combination of the GA with Least-Mean-Square (LMS) method. The results are compared for various values of LMS step size and diff...

Modeling the effect of different infrared treatment on B. cereus in cardamom seeds and using genetic algorithm-artificial neural network

In this study, the effect of infrared (IR) on decontamination of Bacillus cereus in cardamom seeds were determined at difference IR radiation powers (100, 200, and 300 W), different sample distances from radiation source (5, 10 and 15 cm) and various holding times. The most successful reduction in B. cereus numbers (5.11 log CFU/g) was achieved after a holding time of 8 min at...

A New Approach to Solve N-Queen Problem with Parallel Genetic Algorithm

Over the past few decades great efforts were made to solve uncertain hybrid optimization problems. The n-Queen problem is one of such problems that many solutions have been proposed for. The traditional methods to solve this problem are exponential in terms of runtime and are not acceptable in terms of space and memory complexity. In this study, parallel genetic algorithms are proposed to solve...

Modeling of measurement error in refractive index determination of fuel cell using neural network and genetic algorithm

Abstract: In this paper, a method for determination of refractive index in membrane of fuel cell on basis of three-longitudinal-mode laser heterodyne interferometer is presented. The optical path difference between the target and reference paths is fixed and phase shift is then calculated in terms of refractive index shift. The measurement accuracy of this system is limited by nonlinearity erro...

An Efficient Genetic Algorithm for Task Scheduling on Heterogeneous Computing Systems Based on TRIZ

An efficient assignment and scheduling of tasks is one of the key elements in effective utilization of heterogeneous multiprocessor systems. The task scheduling problem has been proven to be NP-hard is the reason why we used meta-heuristic methods for finding a suboptimal schedule. In this paper we proposed a new approach using TRIZ (specially 40 inventive principles). The basic idea of thi...
