Other Evolutionary and Bio-Inspired Computation Techniques
In this chapter, you will broaden your horizons and discover several new problem-solving and optimization techniques related to genetic algorithms. Three different techniques of this extended family – genetic programming, NeuroEvolution of Augmenting Topologies (NEAT), and particle swarm optimization – will be then demonstrated through the implementation of problem-solving Python programs. Finally, we will provide a brief overview of several other related computation paradigms.
This chapter will cover the following topics:
- The evolutionary computation family of algorithms
- Understanding the concepts of genetic programming and how they differ from genetic algorithms
- Using genetic programming ...
