Question

What are the two main features of Genetic Algorithm?

Answer 1

Genetic Algorithms - Fundamentals

• Population − It is a subset of all the possible (encoded) solutions to the given problem. ...

•Chromosomes − A chromosome is one such solution to the given problem.

Answer 2

Fitness function and Crossover techniques are the two main features of the Genetic Algorithm.

What is the genetic algorithm :

The genetic algorithm is a method known as natural selection, the mechanism that drives evolutionary processes, for addressing both limited and unconstrained optimization problems.

Two main eatures of the genetic algorithm :

• The fitness function determines how important a design is a greater fitness rating indicates a more effective design. A fitness function can be defined in a variety of ways.

• A genetic operator called crossover is used to change the programming of a chromosome or chromosomes from one generation to the next. Sexual reproduction is referred to as crossover. To create superior progeny, two strings are randomly selected from the mating pool to crossover.
