ADAPTIVE CATACLYSMS IN GENETIC ALGORITHMS

摘要

In some embodiments, a computerized method may comprise: determining, by an adaptive cataclysm controller operating on one or more processors, that the population of candidate solutions has converged during a run of the genetic algorithm; determining, by the adaptive cataclysm controller operating on the one or more processors, a cause for convergence of the population based, at least in part, on an analysis of the run of the genetic algorithm; selecting, by the adaptive cataclysm controller operating on the one or more processors, a first cataclysm strategy of a plurality of different cataclysm strategies based, at least in part, on one of the cause for the convergence and a history of the run of the genetic algorithm; and simulating, by the adaptive cataclysm controller operating on the one or more processors, a cataclysm based on the first cataclysm strategy.
