FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package gao

Genetic Algorithm Optimiser

Genetic Alorithms are a class of machine learning approaches that use the principles of natural selection, rather than the solving of mathematical formulae to find solutions to optimisation and search type problems. They are especially effective in complex situation that aren't easily "solved" and can often be used as a more-easily understood alternative to neural networks.

This framework takes care of most of the steps (loops) needed when developing and running a genetic algorithm, leaving you needing only to define the shape of your expected solution and a function to evaluate each candidate faciliating their comparison and thus the march towards an optimum.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

Usage

Framing and Finding Solutions

Firstly create a class that defines a generic solution to the problem to be solved. The class must extend this package's Solution class, which will force the implemetation of two methods: genome() which defines the shape of a valid solution and evaluate(), which will calculate a numerical value that can be used to compare solutions.

Then instantiate and run the optimiser, creating an initial population of possible solutions to start its evaluation.

Data Manager

Although some use cases may not require much, if any, data against which to evaluate candidate solutions, others may need astronomical amounts. This could be be the case in financial markets where a trading strategy is sought and candidates are evaluated against the evolution of prices for many different securities, or in sports trading markets where possible strategies may be evaluated against changes in odds for thousands of events.

The DataManager class offers utilities optimised to assist with htese challenges. Here's the sort of thing that it can do:

PHP is also rather memory hungry when constructing arrays. If you experience out of memory errors, then the following may help:
