Parameter control is still one of the main challenges in evolutionary computation. This paper is concerned with controlling selection operators on-the-fly. We perform an experimental comparison of such methods on three groups of test functions and conclude that varying selection pressure during a GA run often yields performance benefits, and therefore is a recommended option for designers and users of evolutionary algorithms.
