TL;DR: This book brings together the computer techniques, mathematical tools, and research results that will enable both students and practitioners to apply genetic algorithms to problems in many fields.
Abstract: From the Publisher:
This book brings together - in an informal and tutorial fashion - the computer techniques, mathematical tools, and research results that will enable both students and practitioners to apply genetic algorithms to problems in many fields.
Major concepts are illustrated with running examples, and major algorithms are illustrated by Pascal computer programs. No prior knowledge of GAs or genetics is assumed, and only a minimum of computer programming and mathematics background is required.

TL;DR: An Introduction to Genetic Algorithms as discussed by the authors is one of the rare examples of a book in which every single page is worth reading, and the author, Melanie Mitchell, manages to describe in depth many fascinating examples as well as important theoretical issues.
Abstract: An Introduction to Genetic Algorithms is one of the rare examples of a book in which every single page is worth reading. The author, Melanie Mitchell, manages to describe in depth many fascinating examples as well as important theoretical issues, yet the book is concise (200 pages) and readable. Although Mitchell explicitly states that her aim is not a complete survey, the essentials of genetic algorithms (GAs) are contained: theory and practice, problem solving and scientific models, a \"Brief History\" and \"Future Directions.\" Her book is both an introduction for novices interested in GAs and a collection of recent research, including hot topics such as coevolution (interspecies and intraspecies), diploidy and dominance, encapsulation, hierarchical regulation, adaptive encoding, interactions of learning and evolution, self-adapting GAs, and more. Nevertheless, the book focused more on machine learning, artificial life, and modeling evolution than on optimization and engineering.

05 Jul 1995TL;DR: C Culling is near optimal for this problem, highly noise tolerant, and the best known a~~roach in some regimes, and some new large deviation bounds on this submartingale enable us to determine the running time of the algorithm.
Abstract: We analyze the performance of a Genetic Type Algorithm we call Culling and a variety of other algorithms on a problem we refer to as ASP. Culling is near optimal for this problem, highly noise tolerant, and the best known a~~roach . . in some regimes. We show that the problem of learning the Ising perception is reducible to noisy ASP. These results provide an example of a rigorous analysis of GA’s and give insight into when and how C,A’s can beat competing methods. To analyze the genetic algorithm, we view it as a special type of submartingale. We prove some new large deviation bounds on this submartingale w~ich enable us to determine the running time of the algorithm.
