1. The following picture shows the maximum and average fitness curves of an evolving population. What
can we infer regarding the population diversity at generation n?
A Nothing
B The first derivative of the diversity curve is zero
C Diversity must be at its maximum
D Diversity must be at its minimum
Note: The population can have different genotypes that all map to the same phenotype.
2. We tackle the n-queens problem with a GA using a bitstring representation where 1 (0)
denotes the presence (absence) of a queen on a square. What is the dimensionality of the
search space?
A 2n
B n!
C n2
Dn
3. We want to optimise the function f (x, y) = x + y with Differential Evolution. Consider
the following population of 6 individuals:
The first step in creating the next generation is the creation of a mutant vector population. What is mutant
vector ⊽4 if the base vector ā4 is individual 5, the difference vector 1 is defined by b̅4 = individual 1 and c̅4 =
individual 2, and the scaling factor is F = 0.5?
A ⊽4 = 〈0.2, 0.5〉
B ⊽4 = 〈0.25, 0.9〉
C ⊽4 = 〈0.35, 0.9〉
D ⊽4 = 〈0.4, 1.0〉
4. What is parameter tuning?
A Parameter tuning is adjusting parameters of the evolutionary algorithm before a run
B Parameter tuning is adjusting parameters of the evolutionary algorithm during a run
C Parameter tuning is adjusting parameters of the evolutionary algorithm during a run based on time
D Parameter tuning is adjusting parameters of the evolutionary algorithm by coding them in
the genome
, 5. Determine the truth of statements I, II, and III and select the correct answer from A, B,
C, or D.
I Mutation is a unary reproduction operator.
II Crossover is a unary reproduction operator.
III Recombination is an n-ary reproduction operator (n ≥2).
A I and II are true, while III is false
B I is true, II and III are false
C I and III are true, II is false
D All three statements are true

1. Which of the following statements is true?
A Evolution Strategies do not use genotypes, they work directly on the phenotypes
B Evolution Strategies do not use phenotypes, they work directly on the genotypes
C In Evolution Strategies the genotype space and the phenotype space are identical
D In Evolution Strategies the phenotype space and the fitness space are identical
2. Consider the following illustration of two parents and a child in a 2-dimensional real valued search
space. Point Z is the child of X and Y obtained through
A Single arithmetic crossover
B Whole arithmetic crossover
C Blend crossover
D Simple arithmetic crossover
3. When defining problem complexity (“difficulty”), the definition of class P relies on the characteristics of
A The problem at hand
B The algorithms that can solve the problem at hand
C Both
D None; it concerns the search space.
4. The picture shows that the maximum and average fitness curves touch each otherat generation n, stay
equal for a few generations and split again after generation N. Wha tis the most likely cause of this split at
generation N?
A Cannot tell, could be anything
B A stronger selection scheme was activated
C A softer selection scheme was activated
D A successful mutation took place
