Crossover method for gene value containing a set of values
I have a chromosome where each gene contain s set of values. Like the following: chromosome = [[A,B,C],[C,B,A],[C,D,],[],[E,F]] The order in each gene values matters. (A,B,C is different to A,C,B) ...

How to effectively crossover mathematical curves?
I'm trying to optimize some reflective properties of curves of the form: $a_1x^n+a_2x^{n-1}+a_3x^{n-2} + ... + a_n + b_1y^n+b_2y^{n-1}+b_3y^{n-2} + ... + b_n = 0$ which is basically the curve that ...

Are there clever (fitness-based) crossover operators for binary chromosomes?
While studying genetic algorithms, I've come across different crossover operations used for binary chromosomes, such as the 1-point crossover, the uniform crossover, etc. These methods usually don't ...

Is elitism preferred over non-elitism in the cross-over operator?
There are two potential approaches when performing cross-over operation in genetic algorithms. Use only the elites in the pool, probably the ones that are also going to be directly transferred to the ...
