createRandomPopulation

public Population createRandomPopulation(int populationSize,
                                         int dimensions,
                                         double min,
                                         double max,
                                         boolean log)

Initialises the population with random numbers, with linear or logarithmic distribution.

Specified by:

createRandomPopulation in interface IInitialisator

Parameters:

populationSize -

dimensions - number of genes (variables)

min - minimum possible value

max - maximum possible value

log - are the variables order of magnitude different? If yes use exponential distribution

Returns:

new Population with given parameters
