Class Monica

java.lang.Object
  |
  +--jaga.control.Monica

All Implemented Interfaces:

islandev.EvolutionaryInteractiveTask, distrit.InteractiveTask, java.io.Serializable, distrit.Task

public class Monica

extends java.lang.Object

implements islandev.EvolutionaryInteractiveTask

The main evolutionary control module is in charge of:

Evolving generations.

Keeping track of evolution statistics, like fitness averages, best individuals, etc..

Implementing the distrit.InteractiveTask interface for this to be run on a distributed client like distrit.client.InteractiveTaskClient which connects to a server like MonicaServer. The get and set methods are designed to interface with the islandev.IslandsEvolutionServer of which MonicaServer is an implementation. But these methods can also be used just to get information about the progress of the current evolutionary run.

Constructor Detail

Monica

public Monica(InteractionModel im,
              int popLogFreq,
              int maxGenerations)

Creates new Monica

Parameters:

popLogFreq - every how many generations to send the whole population over to the server to be logged.

maxGenerations - after how many generations to stop evolving.

Monica

public Monica(InteractionModel im,
              int popLogFreq)

Creates new Monica

Parameters:

popLogFreq - every how many generations to send the whole population over to the server to be logged.

Monica

public Monica(InteractionModel im)

Creates new Monica

Method Detail

get

public java.lang.Object get(java.lang.Object params)

Used to get output from the task Creates a report of what's going on inside.

Specified by:

get in interface distrit.InteractiveTask

Parameters:

params - is equal to "GUI" if gui is getting.

Returns:

a Vector whose elements are 0: Vector of best Genotypes.

1: Vector of Integers of current generations.

2: Vector of Doubles of average fitness.

3: Vector of migrating individuals.

4: String showing performance of best individual.

5: [Optional] Vector with History of array of Populations.

set

public void set(java.lang.Object paramsAndWhat)

Used to send input to the task

Specified by:

set in interface distrit.InteractiveTask

Parameters:

paramsAndWhat - here will be getting vector of incoming migrators to be added to each population

run

public java.lang.Object run(java.lang.Object params)
                     throws java.lang.InterruptedException

Runs whatever experiment on whatever deployment for whatever generations.

Note the Evolver must already have the first generation of individuals.

Specified by:

run in interface distrit.Task

Parameters:

params - Integer saying how many generations of evolutions to run for

Returns:

Vector of best genotypes of each population
