niching: Niche-Preservation Operation

In rmoo: Multi-Objective Optimization in R

Niche-Preservation Operation

Description

Generation of niche, by associating reference points to population members

Usage

niching(pop, n_remaining, niche_count, niche_of_individuals, dist_to_niche)

Arguments

pop	Last Front Population
n_remaining	Number of points to choose
niche_count	Niche count of individuals with the reference point
niche_of_individuals	Count of the closest reference point to the last front objective values
dist_to_niche	Distance between closest reference point to last front objective values

Details

Niching procesure is a algorithms proposed by K. Deb and H. Jain in 2013.

Value

Returns the association of reference points to each individual in the population.
