Abstract

See full text

An iterative array of identical cells to implement a crossover function in a genetic algorithm. Each function cell receives two input values and two select values that determine which input value is outputted. By creating an array of these cells, two sets of information of any size can be rapidly and accurately merged to form one set composed of elements of both sets. The cellular array uses identical, repeated cells to implement the crossover function according to precise guidelines. These guidelines are that no data is to be repeated and no data is to be lost, while retaining the order of the parent chromosomes used in crossover.
