A Genetic Algorithm for Fixed-Size Subset Selection R package kofnGA version 1.3 CRAN Task View: Optimization (https://CRAN.R-project.org/view=Optimization) Provides a function that uses a genetic algorithm to search for a subset of size k from the integers 1:n, such that a user-supplied objective function is minimized at that subset. The selection step is done by tournament selection based on ranks, and elitism may be used to retain a portion of the best solutions from one generation to the next. Population objective function values may optionally be evaluated in parallel. Software Imports: bigmemory Mark A. Wolters <mark@mwolters.com> Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN) Mark A.
