Rmalschains

Continuous Optimization using Memetic Algorithms with Local Search Chains (MA-LS-Chains)

CRAN Package

An implementation of an algorithm family for continuous optimization called memetic algorithms with local search chains (MA-LS-Chains), as proposed in Molina et al. (2010) doi:10.1162/evco.2010.18.1.18102 and Molina et al. (2011) doi:10.1007/s00500-010-0647-2. Rmalschains is further discussed in Bergmeir et al. (2016) doi:10.18637/jss.v075.i04. Memetic algorithms are hybridizations of genetic algorithms with local search methods. They are especially suited for continuous optimization.
