recombination_onepoint {ExpDE}

One-point recombination for DE

Description

Implements the one-point recombination (as used in the Simple GA).

Usage

recombination_onepoint(X, M, recpars = list(K = NULL))

Arguments

X

population matrix (original)

M

population matrix (mutated)

recpars

recombination parameters (see Recombination parameters for details)

Value

Matrix U containing the recombined population

Recombination Parameters

The recpars parameter contains all parameters required to define the recombination. recombination_onepoint() understands the following fields in recpars:

• K : cut point for crossover.
  Accepts integer value 0 <= K < n, where n is the dimension of the problem; Use K = 0 or K = NULL for randomly choosing a position for each pair of points.
  Defaults to NULL.
