Abstract
User–system cooperative evolution (CEUS) is an evolutionary computation (EC) method to optimize quantitative and qualitative criteria. In previous work of CEUS, the whole population update is performed at every generation, and the user observes very few individuals. This paper proposes a generation alternation model designed for CEUS. The proposed model allows a user to find widely varied individuals in addition to the best individuals by replacing just one individual in a population for each generation, and consequently, contributes user’s idea generation by enhancing divergent thinking.
