Operator adaptation in evolutionary programming is investigated from both population level and individual level in this paper. The updating rule for operator adaptation is defined based on the fitness distributions at population level compared to the immediate reward or punishment from the feedback of mutations at individual level. Through observing the behaviors of operator adaptation in evolutionary programming, it is discovered that a small-stepping operator could become a dominant operator when other operators have rather larger step sizes. Therefore, it is possible that operator adaptation could lead to slow evolution when operators are adapted freely by themselves. |
