Short Guide to Genetic Algorithms

Code for my demo at @SoftwareNiagara's DevTricks (June 9, 2014).

Join us on the second monday of every month at our casual meetup where developers share their tips, tricks, and knowledge.

Genetic Algorithm (GA)

A genetic algorithm is a search technique inspired by Darwin's Theory of Evolution and is used in computing to find exact or approximate solutions to optimization and search problems.

GAs are mainly used for problems where satisficing is expected. A good solution is satisfactory, and there is little benefit to be gained by going for an expensive optimal solution.

Touring Singer Problem (TSP)

A musician is expected to make a round trip at all the venues she'll be performing at, before returning home. This musician likes to be efficient, and wants to minimize her time on the road. A short route would help a lot...
