Looking Under the EA Hood with Price's Equation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we show how tools based on extensions of Price’s equation allow us to look inside production-level EAs to see how selection, representation, and reproductive operators interact with each other, and how these interactions affect EA performance. With such tools it is possible to understand at a deeper level how existing EAs work as well as provide support for making better design decisions involving new EC applications.

متن کاملKinetic of iodination of phenol and substituted phenols by pyridinium iodochloride in methanol
The kinetics of iodination of the phenol and substituted phenols using pyridiniumiodochloride in methanol has been studied under varying conditions. The rates show first orderkinetics each in pyridinium iodochloride and phenols. The rates of reactions are measured atdifferent temperature and activation parameters for all phenols computed. Hammett plot is foundto be valid and the corrletion betw...
متن کاملGeorge Price's contributions to evolutionary genetics.
George Price studied evolutionary genetics for approximately seven years between 1967 and 1974. During that brief period Price made three lasting contributions to evolutionary theory; these were: (i) the Price Equation, a profound insight into the nature of selection and the basis for the modern theories of kin and group selection; (ii) the theory of games and animal behavior, based on the conc...
متن کاملEffect of external mass transfer on activation energy of butyl oleate ester synthesis using a whole cell biocatalyst
In the present research, synthesis of butyl oleate ester from oleic acid and butanol using loofa-immobilized Rhizopus oryzae as a whole cell biocatalyst (LIC) was studied in which hexane was used as the hydrophobic solvent. Decrease of mass transfer limitations as result of the interface formation between the two immiscible substrates, positively affected on the reaction progress (87% as the es...
