!!Masters Outline
When dealing with genetic algorithms and artificial life, the single
most important factor is evolution. For evolution to occur, the
representation of the "solution" or "organism", its ''genetic
language'', must be able to change from one form into another. The
purpose of this project is to attempt to determine what features and
properties of a language affect its evolution, and perhaps begin to
establish a "theory of evolvability" that is applicable to genetic
algorithm systems.
!!!Notes and directions on this:
* Start at the low level, {{Gray code}}
* Look at the higher level, {{Permutation encoding}}
* Explain how all this ties in to genotype <-> phenotype mapping
* Extract various properties (orthogonality, etc)
* Test the various properties as individually as possible.
