Understanding Evolutionary Computing: A Hands on Approach
نویسنده
چکیده
|Evolutionary computing is the study of robust search algorithms based on the principles of evolution. An Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) searches a problem space in order to nd regions containing good solutions. Typically EA users judge the quality of their algorithms by the quality of the solutions found. This approach ignores the behavior of the search algorithm and concentrates solely on the outcome. As a result, the user is unaware of their algorithm's actions or how the solutions were discovered. This paper describes how search space visualizations can be used to facilitate the user's understanding of evolutionary computing. A set of examples are presented showing how the user can take a \hands on" approach to explore the behavior of their algorithms and interact with the evolutionary search process.

متن کاملA JOINT DUTY CYCLE SCHEDULING AND ENERGY AWARE ROUTING APPROACH BASED ON EVOLUTIONARY GAME FOR WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS
Network throughput and energy conservation are two conflicting important performance metrics for wireless sensor networks. Since these two objectives are in conflict with each other, it is difficult to achieve them simultaneously. In this paper, a joint duty cycle scheduling and energy aware routing approach is proposed based on evolutionary game theory which is called DREG. Making a trade-off ...
