Abstract:
This study develops a decision-making strategy for deciding between fitness functions with differing bias values. Simple, yet practical facetwise models are derived to aid the decision-making process. The decision making strategy is designed to provide maximum speed-up and thereby enhance the efficiency of GA search processes. Results indicate that bias can be handled temporally and that significant speed-up values can be obtained.
