Preparing for the Unexpected: Diversity Improves Planning Resilience in Evolutionary Algorithms
[article]
2018
pre-print
As an example case, we implement a diversity-aware genetic algorithm using two different metrics for diversity (differing in their generality) and show that the blow in performance due to unexpected change ...
In order to improve the planner's resilience to unforeseen change, we argue that maintaining a certain level of diversity amongst the considered plans at all times should be added to the planner's objective ...

Evaluating resilience strategies based on an evolutionary multi-agent system
2013
2013 IEEE International Conference on Computational Intelligence and Cybernetics (CYBERNETICSCOM)
In this paper, we present an evolutionary multi-agent system for evaluating the effectiveness of those strategies and show several insights drawn from our preliminary results. ...
There seems to be a consensus among many researchers in this field that redundancy, diversity, and adaptability are the three key characteristics of resilient systems that can absorb shocks and recover ...

The Diversity Paradox: How Nature Resolves an Evolutionary Dilemma
[article]
2011
arXiv
pre-print
Diversity in traits is necessary for adaptation and can influence the survival of a population faced with novelty. ...
In habitats that remain stable over many generations, stabilizing selection reduces trait differences within populations, thereby appearing to remove the diversity needed for heritable adaptive responses ...

Degeneracy allows for both apparent homogeneity and diversification in populations
2012
Biosystems (Amsterdam. Print)
We argue that degeneracy, the ability of diverse population elements to function similarly, can satisfy both the current need to maximize fitness and the future need for diversity. ...
Trait diversity -the substrate for natural selection -is necessary for adaptation through selection, particularly in populations faced with environmental changes that diminish population fitness. ...
