By selecting the Numerical Constants
Tab, you are now able to activate the second learning algorithm of APS 3.0 by checking the Use Random Numerical Constants box.
This algorithm is very similar to the default algorithm of APS 3.0, with the difference that it gives the user the possibility of choosing the range and type of numerical constants that will be used during the learning process.
Here you have also access to a small set of genetic operators (RNC
mutation, Dc
mutation, Dc
inversion, and Dc IS
transposition) especially developed for handling random numerical constants (if you are not familiar with these operators, please use the default values for they work very well in all cases).
