Created by Navid Shirzadi | 4.5 hours on-demand video course
The “Optimization with Genetic Algorithms: Hands-on Python” course is a comprehensive and practical guide to understanding and implementing genetic algorithms for solving various optimization problems. Genetic algorithms, inspired by the principles of natural evolution, are powerful techniques for finding optimal solutions in multiple domains.
In this Optimization with Genetic Algorithms course, you will learn the fundamental concepts of genetic algorithms and their applications in optimization. Starting from the basics, you will explore the principles of selection, crossover, and mutation that drive the evolution process. You will understand how to represent problem solutions as chromosomes, apply genetic operators to generate offspring, and evaluate the fitness of individuals.
With a hands-on approach, you will dive into implementing genetic algorithms using Python programming language. Through a real-world problem project, you will gain proficiency in designing and optimizing genetic algorithms for real-world scenarios. You will learn how to define appropriate fitness functions, set up population structures, control algorithm parameters, and handle constraints in optimization problems.
