public interface Genome
extends MLMethod

A genome is the basic blueprint for creating an phenome (organism) in Encog. Some genomes also function as phenomes.

Method Detail

copy

void copy(Genome source)

Copy from the specified genome into this one.

Parameters:

source - The source genome.

getAdjustedScore

double getAdjustedScore()

Get the adjusted score, this considers old-age penalties and youth bonuses. If there are no such bonuses or penalties, this is the same as the score.

Returns:

The adjusted score.

getBirthGeneration

int getBirthGeneration()

Returns:

The birth generation (or iteration).

getPopulation

Population getPopulation()

Returns:

The population that this genome belongs to.

getScore

double getScore()

Returns:

The score for this genome.

setAdjustedScore

void setAdjustedScore(double adjustedScore)

Set the adjusted score.

Parameters:

adjustedScore - The adjusted score.

setBirthGeneration

void setBirthGeneration(int birthGeneration)

Set the birth genertion (or iteration).

Parameters:

birthGeneration - The birth generation.

setPopulation

void setPopulation(Population population)

Set the population that this genome belongs to.

Parameters:

population - The population that this genome belongs to.

setScore

void setScore(double score)

Set the score.

Parameters:

score - The new score.

size

int size()

Returns:

Return the size of this genome. This size is a relative number that indicates the complexity of the genome.

getSpecies

Species getSpecies()

Returns:

The species for this genome.

setSpecies

void setSpecies(Species s)

Set the species for this genome.

Parameters:

s - The species.
