I've been looking for some good genetic programming examples for C#. Anyone knows of good online/book resources? Wonder if there is a C# library out there for Evolutionary/Genetic programming?
Genetic algorithms (GA) and genetic programming (GP) are interesting areas of research.
I'd like to know about specific problems you - the SO reader - have solved using GA/GP and what libraries/frameworks you used if you didn't roll your own.
Questions:
What problems have you used GA/GP to solve?
What libraries/frameworks did you use?
I'm…
Is there a difference between Genetic algorithms and evolutionary algorithms ? I have read multiple papers, talking about genetic or evolutionary algorithms, and while very similar, I think they may not be the same thing.
Hi,
I'm writing a genetic programming (GP) system (in C but that's a minor detail). I've read a lot of the literature (Koza, Poli, Langdon, Banzhaf, Brameier, et al) but there are some implementation details I've never seen explained. For example:
I'm using a steady state population rather than a generational approach, primarily to use all of…
I'm sure many people have already seen demos of using genetic algorithms to generate an image that matches a sample image. You start off with noise, and gradually it comes to resemble the target image more and more closely, until you have a more-or-less exact duplicate.
All of the examples I've seen, however, use a fairly straightforward…
I'm looking to add some genetic algorithms to an Operations research project I have been involved in. Currently we have a program that aids in optimizing some scheduling and we want to add in some heuristics in the form of genetic algorithms. Are there any good libraries for generic genetic programming/algorithms in c++? Or would you…
I want to make a solution to find the optimum route of school visit. For example, I want to visit 5 schools (A, B, C, D, E) in my city. Then I must find out what school I should visit first, then the second, then the third etc. with distance, time, and cost criteria. The problem is, I am confused about how to use distance with time…
Hi all,
I am newbie for integer linear programming.
I plan to use a integer linear programming solver to solve my combinatorial optimization problem.
I am more familiar with C++/object oriented programming on an IDE.
Now I am using NetBeans with Cygwin to write my applications most of time.
May I ask if there is an easy use ILP…
Lately I'm interested in a topic of genetic algorithms, but i couldn't find any good resource. If you know any good resource, book or a site i would appreciate it. I have solid knowledge of algorithms and A.I. but im looking for something with good introduction in genetic programing.
Is it good idea to use geneticalgorithm in production?
If you are using it:
In what case?
What pros for selecting subj?
Can you easily add changes to algorithm?
Has anybody seen a GP implemented with online learning rather than the standard offline learning? I've done some stuff with genetic programs and I simply can't figure out what would be a good way to make the learning process online.
Please let me know if you have any ideas, seen any implementations, or have any references that…
I'm programming GeneticAlgorithm in C++ and after searching all kind of ways of doing GA'a operators (selection, crossover, mutation) I came up with a doubt. Let's say I have an initial population of 500. My selection will consist in getting the top 20% of 500(based on best fitness). So I get 100 individuals to mate. When I do…
I'm trying to solve the graph partitioning problem on large graphs (between a billion and trillion elements) using GA.
The problem is that even one chromosome will take several gigs of memory. Are there any general compression techniques for chromosome encoding? Or should I look into distributed GA?
NOTE: using some sort of…
Let's imagine I have an unknown function that I want to approximate via Genetic Algorithms. For this case, I'll assume it is y = 2x.
I'd have a DNA composed of 5 elements, one y for each x, from x = 0 to x = 4, in which, after a lot of trials and computation and I'd arrive near something of the form:
best_adn = [ 0, 2, 4,…
Hi,
I'm trying to develop a geneticalgorithm that will find the most efficient way to connect a given number of nodes at specified locations.
All the nodes on the network must be able to connect to the server node and there must be no cycles within the network. It's basically a tree.
I have a function that can measure…
I did a little GP (note:very little) work in college and have been playing around with it recently. My question is in regards to the intial run settings (population size, number of generations, min/max depth of trees, min/max depth of initial trees, percentages to use for different reproduction operations, etc.). What is…
I'm just wonder, what the differences are between creating a BMP file algorithm and JPG file algorithm ?
If you know the others images' format algorithm, please post them.
Thanks.
Hello,
I'm facing a parameter selection problem, which I would like to solve using GeneticAlgorithm (GA). I'm supposed to select not more than 4 parameters out of 3000 possible ones. Using the binary chromosome representation seems like a natural choice. The evaluation function punishes too many "selected" attributes…
Can anyone provide some pseudo code for a roulette selection function? How would I implement this:
I don't really understand how to read this math notation. I never took any probability or statistics.
What is the significance of Bresenhams Line of Sight algorithm in chasing and evading in games?
As far as i know and implemented this algorithm calulates the straight line between two given points. However while implementing it in game development i stored the points calculated using this algorithm in an array.Then…
I'm a computer science student and for this years project, I need to create and apply a GeneticAlgorithm to something. I think Neural Networks would be a good thing to apply it to, but I'm having trouble understanding them. I fully understand the concepts but none of the websites out there really explain the…
I have N people who must each take T exams. Each exam takes "some" time, e.g. 30 min (no such thing as finishing early). Exams must be performed in front of an examiner.
I need to schedule each person to take each exam in front of an examiner within an overall time period, using the minimum number of…
