Watchmaker Framework Description

An extensible, high-performance, object-oriented framework

The Watchmaker Framework is an extensible, high-performance, object-oriented framework for implementing platform-independent evolutionary/genetic algorithms in Java. The framework provides type-safe evolution for arbitrary types via a non-invasive API.

Features

* Multi-Threaded Evolution Engine - Takes advantage of parallelism to improve performance on multi-core and multi-processor machines.
* Non-Invasive - Objects of any type can be evolved without the evolvable class having to implement a particular interface or extend from a common base class. This means that there are no restrictions on the implementation of the evolvable type and no dependencies on any framework classes. The evolvable type is completely decoupled.
* Pluggable Selection Strategies - Roulette Wheel Selection, Tournament Selection and several other selection strategies are provided. Alternatively, you can implement your own selection strategy quickly and easily.
* Flexible Evolution Schemes - The evolution process can be as simple or as complicated as you like. A single step or several operators combined in sequence and/or with branching. Use the provided operators, implement your own, or use a combination of both.
* Re-usable Operators for Common Types - Ready-to-use cross-over and mutation implementations are provided for several data types including bit strings, character strings, arrays and lists.
* Island Model Evolution - Evolve multiple populations in parallel with periodic migration of individuals between islands.
* Steady-State Evolution - Evolve one member of the population at a time.
* Evolution Strategies - Support for both (μ+λ) and (μ,λ) evolution strategies.
* Interactive Evolutionary Algorithms - Support for user-guided selection makes the framework suitable for applictions in which defining an adequate fitness function is difficult, such as evolutionary art and evolutionary music.
* Distributed Processing - Support for distributed fitness evaluations using either Hadoop (via the Apache Mahout project) or Terracotta.
* Swing Component Library - Re-usable components to simplify the building of graphical user interfaces for evolutionary programs. Includes a generic Evolution Monitor component that provides information about a running evolutionary program.
