چکیده
Evolutionary algorithms have been gaining increased attention the past few years because of their versatility and are being successfully applied in several diierent elds of study. We group under this heading a family of new computing techniques rooted in biological evolution that can be used for solving hard problems. In this chapter we present a survey of genetic algorithms and genetic programming, two important evolutionary techniques. We discuss their parallel implementations and some notable extensions, focusing on their potential applications in the eld of evolvable hardware.

متن کاملOptimization of sediment rating curve coefficients using evolutionary algorithms and unsupervised artificial neural network
Sediment rating curve (SRC) is a conventional and a common regression model in estimating suspended sediment load (SSL) of flow discharge. However, in most cases the data log-transformation in SRC models causing a bias which underestimates SSL prediction. In this study, using the daily stream flow and suspended sediment load data from Shalman hydrometric station on Shalmanroud River, Guilan Pro...
