Abstract

Parameters of real-valued crossover operators have been often tuned under a constraint for preserving statistics of infinite parental population. For applications in actual scenes, in a previous study, an alternative constraint, called unbiased constraint , considering finiteness of the population has been derived. To clarify the wide applicability of the unbiased constraint, this paper presents two additional studies: (1) applying it to various crossover operators in higher dimensional search space, and (2) generalization of it for preserving statistics of overall population. Appropriateness of the parameter setting based on the unbiased constraint has been supported in discussion on robust search.
