| − | A generic GA (also known as an evolutionary algorithm [EA]) assumes a discrete search space ''Italic text H'' and a function
| |
| − | \[f:H\to\mathbb{R}\],
| |
| − | where ''Italic text H'' is a subset of the Euclidean space ''Italic text R''.

| |
| | | | |
| − | With GAs it is customary to distinguish genotype–the encoded representation of the variables–from phenotype–the set of variables themselves. The vector ''Italic text'' X is represented by a string (or chromosome) ''Italic text'' s of length ''Italic text'' l madeup of symbols drawn from an alphabet ''Italic text'' A using the mapping

| − | The mapping ''Italic text'' c is not necessarily surjective. The range of ''Italic text'' c determine the subset of ''Italic text''<sup>Superscript text</sup> Al available for exploration by a GA. The range of ''Italic text'' c, ''Italic text'' Ξ

| | | | |
| − | The string length ''Italic text'' l depends on the dimensions of both ''Italic text'' H and ''Italic text''<sup>Superscript text</sup> Al, 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.

| − | | |
| − | Finally, with GAs it is helpful if ''Italic text'' 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 ''Italic text'' x for every string and a unique string for each ''Italic text'' x.

| − | 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, \[\iota :\cup _{i=1}^{\infty}{{({{H}^{u}})}^{(i)}}\to\]{true,false} (the termination criteria), \[\chi\in\]{true, false}, r a sequence \[\left\{{{r}^{(i)}} \right\}\]
| |
| − | | |
| − | Define the collection ''Italic text''μ (the number of individuals) via <sub>Subscript text</sub>''Italic text''Hμ. The population transforms are denoted by
| |
| − | | |
| − | \[T:{{H}^{\mu }}\to {{H}^{\mu }}\]
| |
| − | | |
| − | where \[\mu \in \mathbb{N}\ of recombination operators τ(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): \[X_{s}^{(i)}\timesT(H,\mathbb{R})\to T(\Omega _{s}^{(i)},T(({{H}^{u{{'}^{(i)+\chi {{\mu}^{(i)}}}}}}),{{H}^{{{\mu }^{(i+1)}}}}))\], \[\Theta _{r}^{(i)}\ in X_{r}^{(i)}\] (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 <sup>Superscript text</sup>''Italic text''Al. The resulting collection is the initial population, denoted by ''Italic text'' 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 (''Italic text μ") 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 ''Italic text''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 ''Italic text''f is determined by the application, while the specification of the decoding function ''Italic text''c[1] and the fitness scaling function <sup>Subscript text</sup>''Italic text''Ts 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.

| − | [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.
