Abstract

We investigate a form of selection, linear selection, where parents are not selected independently. One form of dependent selection, semi-linear selection, where the parents are jointly selected with a probability proportional to the average of their selection probabilities, leads the GA to behave half-way between an algorithm driven by crossover and one driven by mutation.
