Complete contructor

Parameters:

pblockSize - Size of blocks to copy.

palignmentSize - What size of window to align to, will not copy across alignments

palignmentOffset - Inside each aligned window where to start a block

readOnlyAlignments - How many alignments at the start of genotype should not be replaced

globalOffset - At what bit of the genotype to start counting blocks, everything before this will be ignored.

Method Detail

operate

public void operate(Selector selector,
                    Population oldPopulation,
                    Population newPopulation,
                    int howMany)

method that adds genotypes to the new population by extracting some from the old one and manipulating them in some way.

Specified by:

operate in interface GeneticOperator

Parameters:

oldPopulation - in parameter having all the original genotypes

newPopulation - in/out parameter where the next generation of genotypes is being built

howMany - how many new genotypes to add to the new population

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:
