Whole Arithmetic Crossover

Description

New offspring are produced by applying an arithmetic mean to all of the parents' chromosomes. (Davis, 1985; Back et.al, 1991; Michalewicz & Janikov, 1991; Michalewicz, 1992; Michalewicz, 1995).

Usage

wax(x1, x2, cxon, cxalfa, ...)

Arguments

x1	A vector. It contains the chromosomal information of parent-1.
x2	A vector. It contains the chromosomal information of parent-2.
cxon	Number of offspring to be generated as a result of crossover
cxalfa	Alpha value. If no value is entered, it is randomly selected by the function in the range [0,1].
...	Further arguments passed to or from other methods.

Value

A matrix containing the generated offsprings.
