public class Genome

extends java.lang.Object

This class manage the Genomes composing each Chromosome. The genome represent a rule of the solution. Each genome is composed by many Gene.

Constructor Detail

Genome

public Genome(GaConfiguration configuration,
              int family,
              Chromosome chromosome)

Constructor of the class.

Parameters:

configuration - Configuration file from which get parameters

family - Family of the genome

chromosome - Chromosome the Genome belongs to.

Method Detail

getBody

public Gene[] getBody()

Get the genes composing the Genome.

Returns:

Gene composing the genome.

getDomain

public int getDomain()

It specify the domain (alphabet) used by the ga. The domain is the number of states in witch a gene can be. The valid values start from 0 to domain-1. It is something like the alphabet used by the genes. Usually a standard ga has a binary alphabet, than the domain will be 2 (that means 2 possible modes: 0 and 1).

Returns:

domain

getGene

public Gene getGene(int position)

Get a specific Gene at a given position of the Genome.

Returns:

Requested Gene

getLength

public int getLength()

Get the number of Genes in the Genome

Returns:

Number of Genes

getType

public int getType()

Not implemented

Returns:

Univocal or random

print

public void print(boolean printDetails)

Print Genome's information.

Parameters:

printDetails - Option if print some Gene's information.

setBody

public void setBody(Gene[] aGene)

Define the Genes composing the Genome.

Parameters:

aGene - Body of the Genome

setRandomBody

public void setRandomBody()

Initialize the Genome with random Genes.

setUnivocalBody

public void setUnivocalBody()

Initialize the Genome with univocal Genes.

getUnivocalGenomeSet

public java.util.Set getUnivocalGenomeSet()

The unsorted list of genes used for operations on univocal genomes.

Returns:

Returns the univocalGenomeSet.

getMutationRate

public double getMutationRate()

Returns:

Returns the myMutationRate.
