Evolutionary Algorithms (I) – Inspirations and Principles
Darko Grundler
Abstract
Text shortly presents the basic idea and historical development of application of a natural evolution mechanism for optimizing, learning and modeling. The main concepts and methods of natural and formal representation of evolution known under the common name »evolution algorithms« (EA for short) are explained side by side. Types of intelligent algorithms including EA are mentioned
and its characteristics, advantages and fields of application are given. Simple examples illustrate the practical representation of EA notions and methods.
