How genetic algorithms work
A genetic alogoritm mimics the process of population genetics in order to optimise some fitness criteron. In our case this criterion is based on how good the simulated data matches the experimental results. By
It repeats teh following step a number of times (either a fixed number of times, or contrained by some metrix such as the fitness or the change thereof.)
Mutation
In the mutation step we add new exampk
- crossing over
Evaluation
In this step yet unevaluated individuals are evaluated
Selection
In the selection step we discard some individuals of our population that we deem not good enough
