BRAIN Journal-Evolving Spiking Neural Networks for Control of Artificial Creatures-Figure 11. Crossover with two cut points

<p>Then next generation are produced by combination of the elites (15%), crossover (55%) and mutation (30%) of the initial population. Elites are the best chromosomes which are directly transferred to the next generation. Because of long chromosome length, for crossover, five points are randomly chosen in each parent as cut points. Figure 11 shows a typical crossover with two cut points and Figure 12 illustrates a flowchart for the proposed evolutionary model. Selections are based on Roulette Wheel selection, more detailed information can be found in.
