Genetic Algorithm Selection Methods (Genetic Operator)

See:

Example

      Copy
      let { architect, methods } = require("@liquid-carrot/carrot");

let myNetwork = new architect.Perceptron(1,1,1);
let myTrainingSet = [{ input:[0], output:[1]}, { input:[1], output:[0]}];

myNetwork.evolve(myTrainingSet, {
 generations: 10,
 selection: methods.selection.POWER // eg.
});

(static, constant) FITNESS_PROPORTIONATE :object

Fitness Proportionate / Roulette Wheel Selection on Wikipedia

Type:
  • object
Example
      Copy
      let { architect, methods } = require("@liquid-carrot/carrot");

let myNetwork = new architect.Perceptron(1,1,1);
let myTrainingSet = [{ input:[0], output:[1]}, { input:[1], output:[0]}];

myNetwork.evolve(myTrainingSet, {
 generations: 10,
 selection: methods.selection.FITNESS_PROPORTIONATE // eg.
});
Source:
Default Value:
  • {
  "name": "FITNESS_PROPORTIONATE"
}

(static, constant) POWER :object

A random decimal value between 0 and 1 will be generated (e.g. 0.5) then this value will get an exponential value (power, default is 4). So 0.5**4 = 0.0625. This is converted into an index for the array of the current population, sorted from fittest to worst.

Type:
  • object
Example
      Copy
      let { architect, methods } = require("@liquid-carrot/carrot");

let myNetwork = new architect.Perceptron(1,1,1);
let myTrainingSet = [{ input:[0], output:[1]}, { input:[1], output:[0]}];

myNetwork.evolve(myTrainingSet, {
 generations: 10,
 selection: methods.selection.POWER // eg.
});
Source:
Default Value:
  • {
  "name": "POWER",
  "power": 4
}

(static, constant) TOURNAMENT :object

Tournament Selection on Wikipedia

Type:
  • object
Example
      Copy
      let { architect, methods } = require("@liquid-carrot/carrot");

let myNetwork = new architect.Perceptron(1,1,1);
let myTrainingSet = [{ input:[0], output:[1]}, { input:[1], output:[0]}];

myNetwork.evolve(myTrainingSet, {
 generations: 10,
 selection: methods.selection.TOURNAMENT // eg.
});
Source:
Default Value:
  • {
