Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

📚 Introduction

Evolutionary computing is one of the main techniques nowadays for solving complex optimization problems. This library provides with the basic structure for implementing the most common evolutionary algorithms, such as genetic algorithms.

Evolutionary algorithms basic structure

Evolutionary algorithms are composed basically by four elements:

  • Individuals: Represent possible solutions of our problem in a determinate search space.
  • Mutation: Mutation operator alterates one individual.
  • Recombination: Recombination operator takes two parents and creates the offspring.
  • Parent selection: Selection of the best parents that are going to be reproduced in the next generation.
  • Survivor selection: Selection of the offspring and parents that are going to be the next generation.

This framework is going to provide the most common techniques for each component.

🔧 Installation

Currently project is under development (no stable version released :warning:), but it is going to be installed through npm:

npm install genetics-js

🧬 Usage

No major versions have been released, so only Individuals creation is implemented:

import Genetics from 'genetics-js';
const { BinaryIndividual } = Genetics.individual;

let individual = new BinaryIndividual('001100');
individual.genotype // [false, false, true, true, false, false]

🌠 Roadmap

The roadmap is strictly determined by the operations that are going to be implemented:

  • [x] v0.1.0: Implementation of individuals.
  • [ ] v0.2.0: Implementation of mutation operators.
  • [ ] v0.3.0: Implementation of recombination operators.
  • [ ] v0.4.0: Implementation of parent selection methods.
  • [ ] v0.5.0: Implementation of survivor selection methods.
  • [ ] v0.6.0: Implementation of population and offspring management.
  • [ ] v0.7.0: Implementation of common evolutionary algorithms with fixed configurations.

🏆 Successes

The library has been successfully used in the following projects:
