GAFT

A Genetic Algorithm Framework in pyThon

Introduction

GAFT is a general Python Framework for genetic algorithm computation. It provides built-in genetic operators for target optimization and plugin interfaces for users to define your own genetic operators and on-the-fly analysis for algorithm testing.

GAFT is now accelerated using MPI parallelization interfaces. You can run it on your cluster in parallel with MPI environment.

Python Support

GAFT requires Python version 3.x (Python 2.x is not supported).

Installation

Via pip: pip install gaft

From source: python setup.py install

If you want GAFT to run in MPI env, please install mpi4py explicitly:

pip install mpi4py

See INSTALL.md for more installation details.

Test

Run unit test:

python setup.py test

Quick start

1. Importing

from gaft import GAEngine

from gaft.components import BinaryIndividual, Population

from gaft.operators import RouletteWheelSelection, UniformCrossover, FlipBitMutation

# Analysis plugin base class.

from gaft.plugin_interfaces.analysis import OnTheFlyAnalysis

2. Define population

indv_template = BinaryIndividual(ranges=[(0, 10)], eps=0.001)

population = Population(indv_template=indv_template, size=50)

population.init() # Initialize population with individuals.

3. Create genetic operators

# Use built-in operators here.

selection = RouletteWheelSelection()

crossover = UniformCrossover(pc=0.8, pe=0.5)

mutation = FlipBitMutation(pm=0.1)

4. Create genetic algorithm engine to run optimization

engine = GAEngine(population=population, selection=selection,

crossover=crossover, mutation=mutation,

analysis=[FitnessStore])

5. Define and register fitness function

@engine.fitness_register

def fitness(indv):

x, = indv.solution

return x + 10*sin(5*x) + 7*cos(4*x)

or if you want to minimize it, you can add a minimization decorator on it

@engine.fitness_register

@engine.minimize

def fitness(indv):

x, = indv.solution

return x + 10*sin(5*x) + 7*cos(4*x)

6. Define and register an on-the-fly analysis (optional)

@engine.analysis_register

class ConsoleOutput(OnTheFlyAnalysis):

master_only = True

interval = 1

def register_step(self, g, population, engine):

best_indv = population.best_indv(engine.fitness)

msg = 'Generation: {}, best fitness: {:.3f}'.format(g, engine.fmax)

engine.logger.info(msg)

7. Run

if '__main__' == __name__:

engine.run(ng=100)

8. Evolution curve

9. Optimization animation

See example 01 for a one-dimension search for the global maximum of function f(x) = x + 10sin(5x) + 7cos(4x)

Global maximum search for binary function

See example 02 for a two-dimension search for the global maximum of function f(x, y) = y*sin(2*pi*x) + x*cos(2*pi*y)

Plugins

You can define your own genetic operators for GAFT and run your algorithm test.

The plugin interfaces are defined in /gaft/plugin_interfaces/, you can extend the interface class and define your own analysis class or genetic operator class. The built-in operators and built-in on-the-fly analysis can be treated as an official example for plugins development.

TODO

✅ Parallelization

✅ Add more built-in genetic operators with different algorithms

🏃 Add C++ backend(See GASol)
