We present a genetic algorithm that combines linkage learning, surrogate models and informed operators. Linkage learning aims at measuring and exploiting interdependence of groups of genes. Surrogate models are fitness approximators to ease the task of calculating true fitness values. Informed operators generate, evaluate and rank a set of solutions according to their fitness model to return their most fit solution. Our described approach provides on-line perturbation based linkage learning and informed linkage exploitation with novel, specialized operators. Results of experimental runs on several synthetic fitness function compositions are provided to demonstrate significant improvement of the final result quality compared to a conventional GA setup.
