Overview

The field of evolutionary computation is expanding dramatically, fueled by the vast investment that reflects the value of applying its techniques. Culling material from the Handbook of Evolutionary Computation, Evolutionary Computation 1: Basic Algorithms and Operators contains up-to-date information on algorithms and operators used in evolutionary computing. This volume discusses the basic ideas that underlie the main paradigms of evolutionary algorithms, evolution strategies, evolutionary programming, and genetic programming. It is intended to be used by individual researchers, teachers, and students working and studying in this expanding field.

Covers all paradigms of evolutionary computation in detail, giving an overview of the rationale of evolutionary computation and its biological background. Offers an in-depth presentation of basic elements of evolutionary computation models according to the types of representations used for typical problem classes, such as binary, real-valued, and parse trees. Choosing this classification based on representation, search operator mutation and recombination are grouped according to the semantics of data they manipulate. Annotation c.
