Evolutionary algorithm life cycle
The general life cycle of a genetic algorithm is outlined in chapter 4. In this chapter, we consider other problems that may be suitable to be solved with a genetic algorithm, why some of the approaches demonstrated thus far won’t work, and alternative approaches.
As a reminder, the general life cycle of a genetic algorithm is as follows:
