Linkage identification based on epistasis measures to realize efficient genetic algorithms
Masaharu Munetomo · 2003
Genetic algorithms (GAs) process building blocks (BBs) mixed and tested through genetic recombination operators. To realize effective BB processing, linkage identification, which detects a set of tightly linked loci, is essential. This paper proposes linkage identification with epistasis measures (LIEM), which detects linkage groups based on a pair-wise epistasis measure.
