Genetic Algorithms: Optimization through Natural Selection

Advantages and Limitations of Genetic Algorithms

Advantages of Genetic Algorithms

  • Can handle large search spaces
  • Can search for the global optimum
  • Can work with incomplete or noisy data
  • Can be used in situations where the objective function is non-linear or non-differentiable

Limitations of Genetic Algorithms

  • Can become trapped in local optima
  • Can be computationally expensive
  • Requires a good understanding of the problem and the selection of appropriate parameters

Despite these limitations, genetic algorithms have been successfully applied to a wide range of optimization problems, including engineering design, scheduling, and finance.
