人们普遍认为,“多样性”与进化算法的成功有关。然而,多样性是一个广泛的概念,可以用多种方式来衡量和定义。到目前为止,大多数进化计算研究已经使用特定基因型或表型特性的丰富度和/或均匀度来测量多样性。虽然这些指标是翔实的,我们假设,其他多样性指标更强烈地预测成功。系统发育多样性度量是生物学中广泛使用的一类度量,它考虑了种群的进化历史。在这里,我们调查的程度1)这些指标提供不同的信息比那些传统上用于进化计算,2)这些指标更好地预测长期的成功运行的进化计算。我们发现,在大多数情况下,系统发育指标的行为有意义的不同,从其他多样性指标。此外,我们的研究结果表明,系统发育多样性确实是一个更好的预测成功。
It is generally accepted that"diversity"is associated with success in evolutionary algorithms. However, diversity is a broad concept that can be measured and defined in a multitude of ways. To date, most evolutionary computation research has measured diversity using the richness and/or evenness of a particular genotypic or phenotypic property. While these metrics are informative, we hypothesize that other diversity metrics are more strongly predictive of success. Phylogenetic diversity metrics are a class of metrics popularly used in biology, which take into account the evolutionary history of a population. Here, we investigate the extent to which 1) these metrics provide different information than those traditionally used in evolutionary computation, and 2) these metrics better predict the long-term success of a run of evolutionary computation. We find that, in most cases, phylogenetic metrics behave meaningfully differently from other diversity metrics. Moreover, our results suggest that phylogenetic diversity is indeed a better predictor of success.
