Mathematics, particularly geometry and topology, allows for the possibility of developing a general geometrical framework and consequently generating deeper insights that may be shared among the different EAs. Genetic Algorithm (GA), inspired by Darwin’s theory of natural selection, is a popular algorithm among EAs. This is a population-based, fitness-oriented algorithm that performs a convex heuristic search to optimize a plethora of problems. Common limitations of GA as well as other EAs have geometrical origins like premature convergence, where the final population’s convex-hull might not include the best solution, called Global Optima. Population diversity maintenance is a key idea that tries to tackle this problem but is often performed through geometrical methods that constantly diminish the search space’s area. In this work, a self-adaptive geometricity approach will be presented. In particular, the non-geometric crossover is strategically employed in a symbiotic relation with geometric crossover, maintaining diversity in a logical way from a geometric/topological grammar standpoint. A comparison with well-known diversity maintenance methods is provided, using common benchmarks that serve as general testing ground for the considered techniques.Castelli, MauroManzoni, LucaRUNFerreira, José Pedro Mendes Ribeiro do Vale2023-10-24T00:31:26Z2022-10-242022-10-24T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/145483TID:203105702enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T05:25:54Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/145483Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:52:06.206048Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
