Houck, C. R., Joines, J. A., Kay, M. G., & Wilson, J. R. (1997, March 1). Evolutionary Computation, Vol. 5, pp. 31–60.

By: C. Houck n, J. Joines n , M. Kay n  & J. Wilson n

Contributors: C. Houck n, M. Kay n , J. Joines n  & J. Wilson n

author keywords: Lamarckian evolution; Baldwin effect; local improvement procedures; hybrid genetic algorithms
MeSH headings : Algorithms; Biological Evolution; Genotype; Models, Genetic; Mutation; Nonlinear Dynamics; Phenotype
topics (OpenAlex): Metaheuristic Optimization Algorithms Research; Advanced Multi-Objective Optimization Algorithms; Robotic Path Planning Algorithms
TL;DR: This paper examines the issue of using partial Lamarckianism (i.e., the updating of the genetic representation for only a percentage of the individuals), as compared to pure Lamarckia and pure Baldwinian learning in hybrid GAs. (via Semantic Scholar)
