A Brief Overview of Population Diversity Measures in Genetic Programming
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the field of Genetic Programming (GP), there has been a growing interest in the effects of loss of genetic diversity, which causes the whole population prematurely converge to local optima. Improving diversity of the population is always an implicit goal of almost any basic genetic programming system. Most research in this area suggests a diversity measurement and controls this quantitative metric to maintain genetically diverse populations. In this paper, we brief overview of the measures used in Genetic Programming for diversity maintenance and promotion.

متن کاملAnalysis of genetic diversity through population history
The idea that diversity in the population of a genetic algorithm affects the algorithm’s search efficiency is widely accepted. However, little is known about the amount of node level diversity present in Genetic Programming (GP) runs. In this paper, we introduce several techniques for measuring the diversity of a population based on the genetic history of the individuals. We then apply these me...

Genetic algorithm is a search & optimization method based on the Darwin’s principle of Survival of the fittest. It is an abstraction of complex natural genetics and natural selection process. Genetic algorithm is based on the principle of natural selection for reproduction and various evolutionary operations as crossover and mutation. Two controlling factors that need to be balanced in the proc...

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is one of the most important legume crops in Iran. Wilt disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceri, is the most important soil-borne disease of chickpea in the world. This disease caused high losses in different regions during recent years. Simple sequence repeat (SSR) were used to estimate genetic diversity in 114 of F. oxysporum isolates from six counties...
