Method Detail

incrementEvaluationround

public void incrementEvaluationround()

calculateFitness

protected Fitness calculateFitness(Type solution)

Determine the Fitness of the current Problem instance based on the provided solution.

Specified by:

calculateFitness in class OptimisationProblemAdapter

Parameters:

solution - The Type representing the candidate solution.

Returns:

The Fitness of the solution in the current Problem.

See Also:

OptimisationProblemAdapter.getFitness(Type, boolean)

getClone

public OptimisationProblemAdapter getClone()

Create a cloned copy of the current object and return it. In general the created copy will be a deep copy of the provided instance. As a result this operation an be quite expensive if used incorrectly.

Specified by:

getClone in interface OptimisationProblem

Specified by:

getClone in interface Problem

Specified by:

getClone in interface Cloneable

Specified by:

getClone in class OptimisationProblemAdapter

Returns:

An exact clone of the current object instance.

Object.clone()

getBehaviouralDomain

public DomainRegistry getBehaviouralDomain()

Description copied from interface: OptimisationProblem

Returns the domain component that describes the search space of the needed behavioral characteristics of the problem. This is mainly used for ECs, however, the use of behavioral parameters with PSO will be investigated.

Returns:

The domain of the behavioral component

getDomain

public DomainRegistry getDomain()

Description copied from interface: OptimisationProblem

Returns the domain component that describes the search space for this problem.

Returns:

A DomainRegistry object representing the search space.
