[[User:Boris Tsirelson|Boris Tsirelson]] ([[User talk:Boris Tsirelson|talk]]) 22:31, 18 September 2012 (CEST):Hi Boris - I have in the sandbox Tgawa63 a completed version of the article.  I receivd some good help w/posting it so I would like to submit it for review.  If you can tell me how to start the review process, I'll be happy to take those steps. [[User:Andrew Clark]] =Genetic Algorithms===Genetic algorithms (GAs): basic form==A generic GA (also known as an evolutionary algorithm [EA]) assumes a discrete search space $H$ and a function\[f:H\to\R,\]where $H$ is a subset of the Euclidean space $\R$.The general problem is to find\[\arg\underset{X\in H}{\mathop{\min }}\,f\]where $X$ is a vector of the decision variables and $f$ is the objective function.With  GAs it is customary to distinguish genotype–the encoded representation  of the variables–from phenotype–the set of variables themselves. The  vector $X$ is represented by a string (or chromosome) $s$ of length $l$  made up of symbols drawn  from an alphabet $A$ using the mapping\[c:A^l\to H\]The  mapping $c$ is not necessarily surjective. The range of $c$ determine  the subset of $A^l$ available for exploration by a GA. The range of  $c$, $\Xi$\[\Xi\subseteq {{A}^{l}}\]is  needed to account  for the fact that some strings in the image $A^l$ under $c$  may  represent invalid solutions to the original problem.The  string length $l$ depends on the dimensions of both $H$ and $A^l$, with the elements of the string corresponding to genes and the values  to alleles. This statement of genes and alleles is  often referred to as  genotype-phenotype mapping.Given the statements above, the optimization becomes:\[\arg\underset{S\in L}{\mathop{\min g}}\,,\]given the function \[g(s)=f(c(s)).\]Finally,  with GAs it is helpful if $c$ is a bijection. The  important property  of bijections as they apply to GAs is that bijections have an inverse,  i.e., there is a unique vector $x$ for every string and a unique string for each $x$.==Genetic algorithms and their Operators==Let $H$ be a nonempty set (the individual or search space)\[{{\left\{{{u}^{i}} \right\}}_{i\ in \mathbb{N}}}\]a sequence in\[{{\mathbb{Z}}^{+}}\](the parent populations).\[{{\left\{  {{u}^{'(i)}} \right\}}_{i\in \mathbb{N}}}\]a sequence in\[{{\mathbb{Z}}^{+}}\](the offspring population sizes),\[\phi:H\to \mathbb{R}\]a fitness function,\[\iota :\cup_{i=1}^{\infty}{{({{H}^{u}})}^{(i)}}\to\{\text{true},\text{false}\}\](the termination  criteria),\[\chi\in\{\text{true},\text{false}\},\]$r$ a sequence\[\left\{{{r}^{(i)}}  \right\}\]Define the collection $\mu$ (the  number of individuals) via $H_\mu$. The population transforms are denoted by\[T:{{H}^{\mu }}\to {{H}^{\mu }}\]where\[\mu \in \mathbb{N}\]of recombination operators $\tau(i)$: \[X_{r}^{(i)}\to T(\Omega_{r}^{(i)},T\left( {{H}^{{{u}^{(i)}}}},{{H}^{u{{'}^{(i)}}}} \right)),\]$m$ a sequence of {m(i)} of mutation operators in mi,\[X_{m}^{(i)}\to T(\Omega  _{m}^{(i)},T\left({{H}^{{{u}^{(i)}}}},{{H}^{u{{'}^{(i)}}}} \right)),\]$s$ a sequence of {si} selection operators s(i):\[X_{s}^{(i)}\times  T(H,\mathbb{R})\to T(\Omega_{s}^{(i)},T(({{H}^{u{{'}^{(i)+\chi  {{\mu}^{(i)}}}}}}),{{H}^{{{\mu  }^{(i+1)}}}})),\]\[\Theta_{r}^{(i)}\in X_{r}^{(i)}\](the recombination parameters),\[\Theta_{m}^{(i)}\in X_{m}^{(i)}\](the mutation parameters), and\[\Theta_{s}^{(i)}\in X_{s}^{(i)}\](the  selection parameters).To account for the cases where populations whose size not equal to their predecessors’, the following expression \[T:{{H}^{\mu}}\to {{H}^{{{\mu }'}}}\]accommodates  populations that contain the same or different individuals. This  mapping has the ability to represent all population sizes, genetic  operators, and parameters as sequences.The  execution  of a GA typically begins by random sampling with replacement  from  $A^l$.  The  resulting collection is the initial population, denoted by  $P(0)$. In general, a population is a collection \[P=({{a}_{1}},{{a}_{2}},...,{{a}_{\mu }})\]of individuals, where\[{{a}_{i}}\in {{A}^{l}},\]and populations are treated as $n$-tuples of individuals. The number of individuals ($\mu$) is defined as the population size.Following  upon the  work of Lamont and Merkle (Lamont, 1997) and others, the  termination  criteria and the other genetic operators(GOs)will be  defined in more  detail.Since $H$ is a nonempty  set,\[c:{{A}^{l}}\to H,\]and\[f:H\to \mathbb{R},\]the fitness scaling  function can be defined as\[{{T}_{s}}:\mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}\]and a  related fitness function as\[\Phi \triangleq {{T}_{s}}\circ f\circ c.\]In  this definition it is understood that the objective function $f$ is  determined by the application, while the specification of the decoding function $c[1]$ and the fitness scaling  function $T_s$ are  design  issues.After initialization, the  execution  proceeds iteratively.  Each iteration consists of an application of  one or more GOs. The combined effect of the GOs applied  in a particular  generation $t\in N$ is a transformation of the current  population  ''Italic text''P(t) into a new population ''Italic  text''P(t+1).In the population transformation $\mu ,{\mu}'\ in {{\mathbb{Z}}^{+}}$(the parent and offspring population  sizes, respectively). A mapping  $T:{{H}^{\mu }}\ to {{H}^{{{\mu }'}}}$  is called a population  transformation (''Italic text''PT). If  $T(P)={P}'$, then ''Italic  text''P is the parent population and  <sup>Superscript  text</sup>''Italic text''P/ the offspring  population. If $\mu  ={\mu }'$,then it is called the population size.The  ''Italic text''PT resulting from a GO often depends on the outcome of a  random experiment. This result is referred to as a random population  transformation (''Italic text''RPT or random PT). To define ''Italic  text''RPT, let $\mu \in {{\mathbb{Z}}^{+}}$and $\Omega $ be a set (the  sample space). A random function $R:\Omega \to T({{H}{\mu  }},\bigcup\limits_{{\mu }'\ in {{\mathbb{Z}}^{+}}}^{{}}{{{H}^{{{\mu  }'}}}})$ is called a ''Italic text''RPT. The distribution of ''Italic  text''PTs resulting from the application of a GO depends on the operator  parameters; in other words, a GO maps its parameters to a ''Italic  text''RPT.Now that both the fitness function and  ''Italic text''RPT have been defined, let$\mu \in {{\mathbb{Z}}^{+}}$,  ''Italic text''X be a set (the parameter space) and $\Omega $ a set. The  mapping $\Zeta :X\to T\left( \Omega ,T\left[ {{H}^{\mu  }},\bigcup\limits_{{\mu }'\in {{\mathbb{Z}}^{+}}}^{{}}{{{H}^{{{\mu}'}}}}  \right] \right)$ is a GO. The set of GOs is denoted as $GAOP\left(  H,\mu ,X,\Omega  \right)$.There are three  common GOs: recombination,mutation, and selection. These three operators  are roughly analogous to their similarly named counterparts in  genetics. The application of them in GAs is strictly Darwin-like in  nature, i.e., “survival of the fittest.”For the  recombination operator let $r\in GAOP\left( H,\mu ,X,\Omega  \right)$.  If there exists $P\in {{H}^{\mu }},\Theta \in X$, and $\omega \in \Omega  $, such that one individual in the offspring population ${{r}_{\Theta  }}\left( P \right)$ depends on more than one individual of P,then r is  referred to as a recombination operator. For the  mutation operator let $m\in GAOP\left( H,\mu ,X,\Omega\right)$. If for  every $P\in {{H}^{\mu }}$, for every $\Theta \in X$, for every  $\omega\in \Omega $, and if each individual in the offspring population  ${{m}_{\Theta}}\left( P \right)$ depends on at most one individual of  P,  then m is called a mutation operator.Finally, for  the selection operator let $s\in EVOP\left( H,\mu ,X\times  T\left(H,\mathbb{R}),\Omega  \right) \right)$. If $P\in {{H}^{\mu  }}$,$\Theta \in X$,$\Phi :H\to\mathbb{R}$in all cases, and satisfies  $a\in {{s}_{\left( \Theta ,\Phi \right)}}(P)\Rightarrow a\in P$, then s  is a selection operator.'''Bold text'''Endnotes[1]  If the domain of c is total, i.e., the domain of c is all of A I, c is  called a decoding function. The mapping of c is not necessarily  surjective. The range of c determines the subset of Al available for  exploration by the evolutionary algorithm.

Txs for the heads-up about the sandbox. I have found it very useful this morning. And I will contact Ulf about the misposted items.

Nice, but I see that you did not use my redlink, but instead typed in a different name. I just moved it. Now it is called User:Tgawa63/sandbox, thus it belongs to your userspace.

There are several problems here -- you are putting displayed math in the middle of a line, but Wiki syntax interprets 4 space indentation as being a quote. I have fixed the first to cases of this in your sandbox, please look at the source --Jjg 19:33, 24 August 2012 (CEST)


GA entry

Hello,My apologies for needing all the help you have given so far. As to Boris' question about TeX, no I have never used it. At to the other question about Wiki use, I have not done that either. Pls know I will be contacting a pro in web building who will make the necessary entries and will hopefully not need as much help as I have so far. Again my apologies for my deficiences. User:Andrew Clark (talk) 16:45, 18 September 2012 (CEST)Andrew Clark

Probably you need someone that knows TeX and Wiki (rather than web building). Boris Tsirelson (talk) 21:44, 18 September 2012 (CEST)
Anyway, it would help, first to look closely at existing texts and try to do as similarly as possible. Also, below I put my version of your text. Feel free to delete it if you do not need it here. At bottom, some portion is left intact; maybe try to correct it yourself similarly to the corrected top portion. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 22:31, 18 September 2012 (CEST)
Hi Boris - I have in the sandbox Tgawa63 a completed version of the article. I receivd some good help w/posting it so I would like to submit it for review. If you can tell me how to start the review process, I'll be happy to take those steps. User:Andrew Clark (talk)
Nice; now it is readable. I took the liberty to make some format changes; hope you do not object (otherwise, feel free to revert).
Some formulas look strange for me. First, "$Xi \subseteq {{A}^{l}}$"; did you mean "$\Xi \subseteq {{A}^{l}}$"? Or "$X_i \subseteq {{A}^{l}}$"? Or what? Second, "fitness function a $[\Phi \triangleq {{T}_{s}}\circ f\circ c$." Probably something is wrong, but I do not guess what should it be.
An article should have references. I tried to make one for you (taking the source from your user page) but I am not sure. Please look and correct as needed (while preserving the format).
Review process? We have nothing like that. Everyone submits articles as he/she wants; everyone may voice opinions, and make improvements; and in the worst case, the chief editor may delete an article.
When you feel the article is ready (for readers and maybe criticism and/or improvements), create it (on the mainspace). If unsure how to do it technically, just ask me (or anyone) to do it for you.
Another question. I see, now you sign "User:Andrew Clark" even though formally we have no such user. Well, I guess who are you... but I should not voice such guess. It is your prerogative, either to disclose your real name, or stay anonymous. But of course we'll be glad if you'll disclose your real name on your user page, with a link to your (impressive enough) university homepage. And then probably you'll prefer to be called "Andrew Clark" rather than "Tgawa63"; if so, just ask Ulf to rename your account.
--Boris Tsirelson (talk) 22:59, 22 October 2012 (CEST)
Many txs for the laughter late in the afternoon here in Boulder, Colorado. I will edit the errors you've kindly noted and make contact w/Ulf re: my real name (btw, I work for a good-size corporation - Thomson Reuters [TR]. Hope the link to TR doesn't put folks off.) -- User:Andrew Clark

New line problem

Rather mysterious... What technical means do you use when editing this text? Which browser, which operation system? Some text editor, or only browser? Why do all "new line" bytes disappear, making it nearly unreadable? --Boris Tsirelson (talk) 00:28, 23 October 2012 (CEST)Now again... You just edited your sandbox, and all "new line" bytes in it are exterminated. Clearly you will not be able to work here until/unless this mysterious problem will be solved. And I cannot help as long as you do not answer the question above.When answering here, please try to edit only this (last) section of this page; otherwise the whole page probably will be misformatted again. --Boris Tsirelson (talk) 23:48, 24 October 2012 (CEST): I am using Internet Explorer 8, no text editor and the operating system is Microsoft Windows XP 2002. As to why the "new line" bytes disappear I do not know. I am editing the text same as I always have -- (talk):: Now it is better that you edit only one section.:: When you edit, if you insert an empty line (to the text in the edit window), do you see the empty line (before you hit "Save page")? --Boris Tsirelson (talk) 08:37, 25 October 2012 (CEST):: See also here. --Boris Tsirelson (talk) 14:53, 25 October 2012 (CEST)::: Tx you for making the effort. From what I understand, it appears to be in part an IE8 issue. I am having the developer I've been working with put in references and construct paragraphs today. I will take a look and be sure all looks ok (I won't do any edits). If edits are needed, I'll go back to the developer tomorrow. This way if you see anything off tonite, I can commuinicate to the developer. Either way, at completion, the entry will be posted to the main space by the developer. My sense is that the developer is using friendly tools than I am. This main mean any futures edits will be done by him.::: PS - I do see the empty line appear before saving. User:Tgawa63:::: I just installed Google Chrome browser (version 22.0) into my old poor Windows XP. (A very simple installation procedure; all is automatic.) It works! You may try the same. Maybe the "newline problem" will disappear immediately. And in general, it is a good idea to have several browsers. ("Firefox" could be another option.) Then, if you suspect that something is wrong, you just try the same on other browsers and compare. --Boris Tsirelson (talk) 20:45, 25 October 2012 (CEST)::::: Many txs. I am use to working w/Firefox as I use Sage on a regular basis. As to Google Chrome, I've used it before but prefer Firefox. I'll tell you if I run into obstacles. [[User:Tgawa63]:::::: Seeing your (now official) "Genetic Algorithms" I see that the "new line problem" is still unsolved. A pity. You write that you have a choice of browsers. So, did you try others (that IE8)? Do they all have the same problem? --Boris Tsirelson (talk) 22:02, 29 October 2012 (CET):::::: I had the web designer put it up. Surprising the breaks are still a problem as they use to appear when I did edits, not him. User:Tgawa63Sorry, I did not understand: did you try different browser(s)? Have they the same problem? And also I see that the "official" article is still made with these "<br>" (in contrast to all other articles here); why? If the web designer is free of the newline problem then he is able to follow our style. --Boris Tsirelson (talk) 22:52, 29 October 2012 (CET)I did use Chrome. I was able to make changes. I did not see any problems. I will ask the developer about the "<br>" issue. User:Tgawa63

Nice... but if so, then you could use Chrome also on this talk page. Surely you see that now every your edit here makes troubles. As far as I understand, it happens because you do it via IE8 rather than Chrome. Why? --Boris Tsirelson (talk) 07:06, 30 October 2012 (CET)

Hello. I have added the command line

  • {{TEX|done}}

to the page Genetic Algorithms. In this way the page is listed in the category [[Category:TeX done]]. Some other templates you might want to use are explained here:

Hello. Many thanks for the connections. I have to admit I don't know how to use the commands, e.g. where they should go and such, so any instructions you can give would be appreciated. I do have the appropriate MSC codes however. User:Tgawa63

If you give me the MSC codes I can add them to the page: it is only a few seconds. Camillo (talk) 21:35, 26 November 2012 (CET)

You're very kind. Thank you. Primary code: 90C99, Secondary codes: 60H25, 68Q87. Txs againUser:Tgawa63
