Title
Case-based reasoning and object-oriented data structures exploit biological analogs to generate virtual evolutionary linkages
Abstract
Multiobjective genetic algorithms (MOGA) and case-based reasoning (CBR) have proven successful in the design of MEMS (microelectromechanical systems) suspension systems. Object-oriented data structures of primitive and complex genetic algorithm (GA) elements have been developed to restrict genetic operations to produce feasible design combinations as required by physical limitations or practical constraints. Thus, virtual linkage between genes and chromosomes are coded into the properties of pre-defined GA objects. A new design problem requires selecting the right primitive elements, associated data structures, and linkages that promise to produce the best gene pool for new functional requirements. In this paper, biomimetics is proposed as a means to examine and classify functional requirements so that case-based reasoning algorithms can be used to map design requirements to promising initial conceptual designs and appropriate GA primitives. The concept is demonstrated using micro-mechanical resonators.
