Evolutionary algorithms

Evolutionary algorithms as optimization methods offer a wide range of application possibilities for engineering solutions to industrial tasks. This book serves as a practical reference work in its preparation. In an application-oriented manner, it describes the fundamental components, methods, operators, and extensions of evolutionary algorithms, starting from a simple structure, and analyzes their application possibilities. Through the detailed presentation of several selected practical examples, insights into the application of evolutionary algorithms are provided. This is invaluable for practical use. The toolbox for Matlab included with the book offers a good introduction to working with evolutionary algorithms and can be immediately used to solve one's own practical problems. The user receives the necessary tools alongside.
