They are expected to provide non-optimal but good quality solutions to problems whose resolution is impracticable by exact methods.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn six chapters, this book presents the essential knowledge required to efficiently implement evolutionary algorithms.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1 describes a generic evolutionary algorithm as well as the basic operators that compose it. Chapter 2 is devoted to the solving of continuous optimization problems, without constraint. Three leading approaches are described and compared on a set of test functions. Chapter 3 considers continuous optimization problems with constraints. Various approaches suitable for evolutionary methods are presented. Chapter 4 is related to combinatorial optimization. It provides a catalog of variation operators to deal with order-based problems. Chapter 5 introduces the basic notions required to understand the issue of multi-objective optimization and a variety of approaches for its application. Finally, Chapter 6 describes different approaches of genetic programming able to evolve computer programs in the context of machine learning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alain Petrowski,Sana Ben-Hamida\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1848218044\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781848218048\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wiley-Iste\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/24\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.10w x 0.70d","brand":"Alain Petrowski","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48014067630335,"sku":"9781848218048","price":177.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a646ff52-12d3-4d54-a9aa-7a0ddef27c7b.jpg?v=1767746528","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/evolutionary-algorithms-alain-petrowski-9781848218048","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
