Genetic algorithm to guess coefficient of a polynomial

I have tried to code a genetic algorithm to guess the coefficients of a degree 4 polynomial. The information initially provided is values of y = f(x) for different x using the original polynomial. I ...

Genetic Algorithm - heavy memory usage

I have implemented two pieces of code as part of an Evolutionary Algorithm study: Particle Swarm Optimisation (PSO) and Genetic Algorithm (GA). Both are designed to find an optimal solution to a ...

Performance optimization when switching from nested to flat representation (genetic algorithm)

The code below is the core of a Genetic Algorithm (NSGA-II to be precise, without crowding-distance calculation), but I've taken out all the GA-specific parts and made a generic example. I think I've ...
