Robust Genetic Algorithm — Evolutionary Optimization under Uncertainty

The Robust Genetic Algorithm (RGA) extends standard genetic algorithms to find solutions that perform well not only at the nominal design point but also when subjected to uncertainty in decision variables, parameters, or fitness evaluations. By incorporating explicit robustness measures into selection pressure, RGA balances optimality against sensitivity to perturbation, making it suitable for engineering design, scheduling, and policy optimization under real-world variability.
