Implicit Niching in a Learning Classifier System: Nature's Way
- Published 1994 in Evolutionary Computation
Abstract
We approach the difficult task of analyzing the complex behavior of even the simplest learning classifier system (LCS) by isolating one crucial subfunction in the LCS learning algorithm: covering through niching. The LCS must maintain a population of diverse rules that together solve a problem (e.g., classify examples). To maintain a diverse population… (More)
