Types of GA, Cont. Parallel GA: GA is inherently parallel, parallel processors can be used to evaluate fitness function. Also, multiple subpopulations can exist (and processed) in parallel. Elitism GA: Fittest chromosomes are passed on to the next generation, unchanged (and can never be replaced by another chromosome.) Niched GA: Maintain several sub-populations of individuals relating to different good solutions — Advantages: Multimodal functions, Competing conventions... Meta-level GA: GA on top of another GA. Ex. A two level GA where one GA is used to control the parameters of the other GA. Fuzzy GA: If human expertise exist, it can be used to determine/adjust parameters of GA such as probability of mutation and crossover, and scaling of fitness function. 1[Page Ble TWh Meta-level GA GA2
