Random Key chromosome is used for permutation representation. It is a vector of a fixed length of real numbers in [0,1] interval. The index of the i-th smallest value in the vector represents an i-th member of the permutation.

For example, the random key [0.2, 0.3, 0.8, 0.1] corresponds to the permutation of indices (3,0,1,2). If the original (unpermuted) sequence would be (a,b,c,d), this would mean the sequence (d,a,b,c).

With this representation, common operators like n-point crossover can be used, because any such chromosome represents a valid permutation.

Since the chromosome (and thus its arrayRepresentation) is immutable, the array representation is sorted only once in the constructor.

Constructor Detail

RandomKey

public RandomKey(List<Double> representation)

Constructor.

Parameters:

representation - list of [0,1] values representing the permutation

Throws:

InvalidRepresentationException - iff the representation can not represent a valid chromosome

RandomKey

public RandomKey(Double[] representation)

Constructor.

Parameters:

representation - array of [0,1] values representing the permutation

Throws:

InvalidRepresentationException - iff the representation can not represent a valid chromosome

Method Detail

decode

public List<T> decode(List<T> sequence)

Permutes the sequence of objects of type T according to the permutation this chromosome represents. For example, if this chromosome represents a permutation (3,0,1,2), and the unpermuted sequence is (a,b,c,d), this yields (d,a,b,c).

Specified by:

decode in interface PermutationChromosome<T>

Parameters:

sequence - the unpermuted (original) sequence of objects

Returns:

permutation of sequence represented by this permutation

isSame

protected boolean isSame(Chromosome another)

Returns true iff another is a RandomKey and encodes the same permutation.

Overrides:

isSame in class Chromosome

Parameters:

another - chromosome to compare

Returns:

true iff chromosomes encode the same permutation

checkValidity

protected void checkValidity(List<Double> chromosomeRepresentation)

Asserts that representation can represent a valid chromosome.

Specified by:

checkValidity in class AbstractListChromosome<Double>

Parameters:

chromosomeRepresentation - representation of the chromosome

randomPermutation

public static final List<Double> randomPermutation(int l)

Generates a representation corresponding to a random permutation of length l which can be passed to the RandomKey constructor.

Parameters:

l - length of the permutation

Returns:

representation of a random permutation

identityPermutation

public static final List<Double> identityPermutation(int l)

Generates a representation corresponding to an identity permutation of length l which can be passed to the RandomKey constructor.

Parameters:

l - length of the permutation

Returns:

representation of an identity permutation

comparatorPermutation

public static <S> List<Double> comparatorPermutation(List<S> data,
                                     Comparator<S> comparator)

Generates a representation of a permutation corresponding to the data sorted by comparator. The data is not modified during the process. This is useful if you want to inject some permutations to the initial population.

Type Parameters:

S - type of the data

Parameters:

data - list of data determining the order

comparator - how the data will be compared

Returns:

list representation of the permutation corresponding to the parameters

inducedPermutation

public static <S> List<Double> inducedPermutation(List<S> originalData,
                                  List<S> permutedData)

Generates a representation of a permutation corresponding to a permutation which yields permutedData when applied to originalData. This method can be viewed as an inverse to decode(List).

Type Parameters:

S - type of the data

Parameters:

originalData - the original, unpermuted data

permutedData - the data, somehow permuted

Returns:

representation of a permutation corresponding to the permutation originalData -> permutedData

Throws:

DimensionMismatchException - iff the length of originalData and permutedData lists are not equal

MathIllegalArgumentException - iff the permutedData and originalData lists contain different data

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class AbstractListChromosome<Double>
