Class DoubleChromosome

java.lang.Object
  jenes.chromosome.DoubleChromosome

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Cloneable, Chromosome<DoubleChromosome>

public final class DoubleChromosome
extends java.lang.Object
implements Chromosome<DoubleChromosome>

A DoubleChromosome is made of an array of double values. Each value is in the range [lowerBound,upperBound[. The lower bound is include included, the upper bound not. Both the bounds are specified ad the instantiation time. DoubleChromosome is a fixed length chromosome class, thus number of genes is specified at instantiation time and cannot be modified after.

Constructor Detail

DoubleChromosome

public DoubleChromosome(DoubleChromosome chromosome)

Creates a new DoubleChromosome as a copy of the specified chromosome

Parameters:

chromosome - the chromosome to be copied

DoubleChromosome

public DoubleChromosome(int length,
                        double lowerBound,
                        double upperBound)

Creates a DoubleChromosome with each allele in the range [lowerBound, upperBound[

Parameters:

length - the chromosome length

lowerBound - the lower bound

upperBound - the upper bound

Method Detail

setDefaultValueAt

public final void setDefaultValueAt(int pos)

Description copied from interface: Chromosome

Sets the default value at a given position

Specified by:

setDefaultValueAt in interface Chromosome<DoubleChromosome>

Parameters:

pos - the position where to set the default value

clone

public final DoubleChromosome clone()

Description copied from interface: Chromosome

Performs a chromosome deep-cloning.

Specified by:

clone in interface Chromosome<DoubleChromosome>

Overrides:

clone in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

a chromosome clone.

swap

public final void swap(int pos1,
                       int pos2)

Description copied from interface: Chromosome

Exchanges two genes at the specified positions

Specified by:

swap in interface Chromosome<DoubleChromosome>

Parameters:

pos1 - the position of first gene

pos2 - the position of second gene

randomize

public final void randomize()

Description copied from interface: Chromosome

Fills the chromosome with random value.

Specified by:

randomize in interface Chromosome<DoubleChromosome>

randomize

public final void randomize(int pos)

Description copied from interface: Chromosome

Sets a random value in the specified position

Specified by:

randomize in interface Chromosome<DoubleChromosome>

Parameters:

pos - a position where to set the random value

leftShift

public final void leftShift(int from,
                            int to)

Description copied from interface: Chromosome

Makes a left-shift of the genes between two positions. The shift is circular, so the most left-side gene becomes the last gene on right.

Specified by:

leftShift in interface Chromosome<DoubleChromosome>

Parameters:

from - the start position to be shifted

to - the final position to be shifted

rightShift

public final void rightShift(int from,
                             int to)

Description copied from interface: Chromosome

Makes a right-shift of the genes between two positions. The shift is circular, so the most right-side gene becomes the first gene on left.

Specified by:

rightShift in interface Chromosome<DoubleChromosome>

Parameters:

from - the start position to be shifted

to - the final position to be shifted

length

public final int length()

Description copied from interface: Chromosome

Returns the number of genes contained in the chromosome.

Specified by:

length in interface Chromosome<DoubleChromosome>

Returns:

the length of chromosome.

setAs

public final void setAs(DoubleChromosome chromosome)

Description copied from interface: Chromosome

Makes the chromosome a copy of another chromosome.

Specified by:

setAs in interface Chromosome<DoubleChromosome>

Parameters:

chromosome - the chromosome to be copied

cross

Parameters:

chromosome - the chromosome to cross with

from - the start position of the genes to exchange

cross
