Evolution in a rugged fitness landscape.
Kauuman's NK-model for genetic evolution and adaption is analysed for K = N ?1. In this case it describes adaptive walks on random tness landscapes, and its dynamics is equivalent to the Metropolis algorithm for Derrida's Random Energy Model at zero-temperature. We derive analytical expressions for the average length and duration of adaptive walks, and for the variance about these averages. The...
متن کاملIllusions of Significance in a Rugged Landscape
A great deal of academic research, particularly in the social sciences, makes an implicit assumption that the processes being investigated are largely decomposable, meaning that the effects of individual variables identified in one context are likely to be observed in other contexts as well. Many of the statistical tools employed in analyzing social science data, such as regression and structur...
متن کاملGenetic algorithm dynamics on a rugged landscape
The genetic algorithm is an optimization procedure motivated by biological evolution and is successfully applied to optimization problems in different areas. A statistical mechanics model for its dynamics is proposed based on the parent-child fitness correlation of the genetic operators, making it applicable to general fitness landscapes. It is compared to a recent model based on a maximum entr...
متن کاملReflections on Researching the Rugged Fitness Landscape
The success of an informing system depends upon achieving a fit between multiple entities: the sender, the client, the delivery system, and the task to be performed. Conceptually, the effectiveness of such informing can be modeled as a fitness landscape—a function that maps the characteristics of the system into a scalar fitness value. The assumed shape of that landscape plays a major role in d...
