Memetic algorithm — Memetic algorithms (MA) represent one of the recent growing areas of research in evolutionary computation. The term MA is now widely used as a synergy of evolutionary or any population based approach with separate individual learning or local… … Wikipedia
Genetic algorithm — A genetic algorithm (GA) is a search heuristic that mimics the process of natural evolution. This heuristic is routinely used to generate useful solutions to optimization and search problems. Genetic algorithms belong to the larger class of… … Wikipedia
Cultural algorithm — Cultural algorithms (CA) are a branch of evolutionary computation where there is a knowledge component that is called the belief space in addition to the population component. In this sense, cultural algorithms can be seen as an extension to a… … Wikipedia
Memetics — This article is related to the study of self replicating units of culture, not to be confused with mimetics. Memetics is a theory of mental content based on an analogy with Darwinian evolution, originating from Richard Dawkins 1976 book The… … Wikipedia
Metaheuristic — In computer science, metaheuristic designates a computational method that optimizes a problem by iteratively trying to improve a candidate solution with regard to a given measure of quality. Metaheuristics make few or no assumptions about the… … Wikipedia
Hyper-heuristic — A hyper heuristic is a heuristic search method that seeks to automate, often by the incorporation of machine learning techniques, the process of selecting, combining, generating or adapting several simpler heuristics (or components of such… … Wikipedia
