"Optimal" mutation rates for genetic search
Using a set of model landscapes we examine how different mutation rates affect different search metrics. We show that very universal heuristics, such as 1/N and the error threshol...

Optimal Mutation Rates and Selection Pressure in Genetic Algorithms
It has been argued that optimal per-locus mutation rates in GAs are proportional to selection pressure and the reciprocal of genotype length. In this paper we suggest that the not...

Error Thresholds in Genetic Algorithms
The error threshold of replication is an important notion of the quasispecies evolution model; it is a critical mutation rate (error rate) beyond which structures obtained by an e...

An Individually Variable Mutation-Rate Strategy for Genetic Algorithms
Abstract. In Neo-Darwinism, mutation can be considered to be unaffected by selection pressure. This is the metaphor generally used by the genetic algorithm for its treatment of the...
