Deterministic Genetic Algorithm/Evidence
Method evidence record

Deterministic Genetic Algorithm

A Deterministic Genetic Algorithm (DGA) applies the structural framework of evolutionary computation — population, selection, crossover, and replacement — using entirely deterministic operators and fixed decision rules instead of stochastic sampling. By eliminating randomness, the algorithm becomes fully reproducible: running it twice on the same problem yields identical solutions, making it tractable for rigorous benchmarking, reproducibility studies, and systems where stochasticity is undesirable.
