[NewChrom, NewObjV, SUBPOP, CompQuality] = compete(Chrom, SUBPOP, CompQuality, CompOpt, ObjV, Rank);
COMPETition between subpopulations This function performs competition between subpopulations. The selection of the individuals for deletion can be chosen between: - uniform at random selection - fitness-based selection For fitness-based competition (worst individuals are deleted) the fitness values/ranking of the population (Rank) is needed. If omitted or empty single objective scaling using the first column of the objective values (ObjV) is assumed. If the objective values of the population (ObjV) are input parameter and ObjV is output parameter the objective values are copied, according to the flowing of individuals, saving the recomputation of the objective values for the whole popu- lation. The function can handle multiple objective values per individual. Syntax: [NewChrom, NewObjV, SUBPOP, CompQuality] = compete(Chrom, SUBPOP, CompQuality, CompOpt, ObjV, Rank) Input parameters: Chrom - Matrix containing the individuals of the current population. Each row corresponds to one individual. SUBPOP - Vector/scalar containing number of individuals per subpopulation/number of subpopulations if omitted or NaN, 1 subpopulation is assumed CompQuality - if omitted, NaN or empty, CompQuality is calculated equivalent to the size of each subpopulation CompOpt - (optional) Vector containing competition paremeters CompOpt(1): COMPR - Rate of individuals to be deleted/ included per subpopulation (% of subpopulation) if omitted or NaN, 0.2 (20%) is assumed CompOpt(2): Select - number indicating the selection method of deleting individuals 0 - uniform selection 1 - fitness-based selection (worst individuals are deleted) if omitted or NaN, 0 is assumed CompOpt(3): CompMin - number indicating the minimal number of individuals in a subpopulation if omitted or NaN, 5 is assumed ObjV - Column vector or matrix containing the objective values of the individuals in the current population, if Rank is omitted, first column is used for fitness-based competition, saves recalculation of objective values for population Rank - (optional) Column vector containing the fitness values (obtained by ranking) of the individuals in the current population, best individual has highest value, if omitted or empty, single objective scaling using first column of ObjV is assumed Output parameters: NewChrom - Matrix containing the individuals of the current population after competition. NewObjV - (optional) Column vector containing the objective values of the individuals of the current generation after competition. SUBPOP - (optional) Vector/scalar containing number of indi- viduals per subpopulation/number of subpopulations after competition See also: geamain, migrate, compdiv
