darwin
A genetic/evolutionary algorithm library for Dart. Given a population of phenotypes, an evaluator (fitness function), and time, the algorithm will evolve the population until it crosses given fitness threshold.
Read more about genetic algorithms on Wikipedia.
Features of this library:
- Generic approach (anything can be a gene, as long as it can mutate)
- User can tune crossover probability, mutation rate, mutation strength, etc.
- Niching via fitness sharing
- Multi-objective optimization via Pareto rank
- Experimental support for multi-threaded computation
For an up-to-date example use, please see example/example.dart.
Libraries
- darwin
- isolate_worker
- Allows for easy multithreading when you have computational tasks that can be defined by a single method in a single extended class.
