GeneticAlgorithms 與 Stepwising 使用情況與統計

Genetic algorithms are one of the search and optimisation methods. The aim of optimisation is to increase efficiency in reaching a certain optimal value. Genetic algorithms are based on the mechanisms of natural selection and heredity. The basic genetic algorithm is built from three operations: reproduction, crossing, and mutation. Genetic algorithms operate on populations of coding sequences and use random selection rules to search for the global optimal value. However, these random rules are defined to give the appropriate direction of the search. This basic procedure is enhanced by certain genetic manipulations, such as those seen in nature. They include the mechanisms of dominance, diploidy, reconfiguration, translocation, deletion and duplication and occur at the chromosome level.
