mergeSubpops: Merge subpopulations

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) References See Also

Description

This function tries to merge random subopoulations, checking if the result is a better soluton to the minimization problem.

Usage

1
mergeSubpops(subpops.lst, conn.mat, beta)

Arguments

subpops.lst

A list whose elements are vectors of indices for each subpopulation. See subpopsVectorToList.

conn.mat

A square connectivity matrix. This matrix has typically been normalized and made symmetric prior to using this function.

beta

Controls degree of splitting of connectivity matrix, with larger values generating more subpopulations.

Value

List of the same format as subpops.lst, but with potentially fewer subpopulations.
