Abstract

Evolutionary algorithms have been used in many ways for design tasks and other creative endeavors. The choice of representation in these evolutionary algorithms influences the way in which the operators used by a given evolutionary algorithm need to be implemented. In this paper, I explore the way in which it also influences the performance of the algorithm, both from the point of view of the reliability and speed of the algorithms as well as from the point of view of the designs generated by them.
