xegaGaCrossoverFactory {xegaGaGene} | R Documentation |
Configure the crossover function of a genetic algorithm.
Description
xegaGaCrossoverFactory()
implements the selection
of one of the crossover functions in this
package by specifying a text string.
The selection fails ungracefully (produces
a runtime error) if the label does not match.
The functions are specified locally.
Current support:
Crossover functions with two kids:
"Cross2Gene" returns
xegaGaCross2Gene()
."UCross2Gene" returns
xegaGaUCross2Gene()
."UPCross2Gene" returns
xegaGaUPCross2Gene()
.
Crossover functions with one kid:
"CrossGene" returns
xegaGaCrossGene()
."UCrossGene" returns
xegaGaUCrossGene()
."UPCrossGene" returns
xegaGaUPCrossGene()
.
Usage
xegaGaCrossoverFactory(method = "Cross2Gene")
Arguments
method |
A string specifying the crossover function. |
Details
Crossover operations which return 2 kids preserve the genetic material in the population. However, because we work with fixed size populations, genes with 2 offsprings fill two slots in the new population with their genetic material.
Value
A crossover function for genes.
