Research Abstract |
In this study, I proposed a technique that makes evolutionary algorithms possible to solve function optimization problems with several inequality and a single equality constraints. The proposed technique simply forces candidate solutions newly generated to satisfy the equality constraint. To generate these candidate solutions, this study uses a Markov chain Monte Carlo method and crossover kernels. This technique is developed for improving the performances of the genetic network inference methods. I found however that, even when the inference of genetic networks is not defined as a function optimization problem without having an equality constraint, reasonable networks are inferred. Thus, this study then proposed two genetic network inference methods that do not use the technique described above.
