Applying Machine Learning to Chemical Industry: A Self-Adaptive GA-BP Neural Network-Based Predictor of Gasoline Octane Number

Algorithm 2

Genetic algorithm.

  Parents < - { Randomly generated populations }

   While not (Termination condition)

    Calculate the fitness of each parent in the population

  Children < - ∅

   While | Children| < |Parents|

    Using fitness to select a mating pair of sires based on probability

     The parents mated to produce offspring c₁ and c₂

      Children < - Children{c₁, c₂}

   Loop

    Some offspring random mutation

  Parents < - Children

   Next Generation
