This is the run that is discussed in the GENETIS paper submitted to Physical Review D in December of 2021. It was conducted beginning on March 19, 2021. The preprint can be found here. It ran for 31 generations with 50 individuals per generation. Each individual was run through AraSim for 300,000 neutrinos.
The ratio of generative operators was: 72% crossover, 22% immigration, 6% reproduction.
The ratio of selection operators was: 80% roulette, 20% tournament, 0% rank.
The highest scoring individual had a fitness score of 5.24. However, when it was rerun with many more neutrinos (3*10^7), it had a score of 4.90, an 11% improvement over the ARA bicone.
This run was conducted before the introduction of the automatic run_details.txt generator. Instead, there is a file called Run_Notes.txt (attached) which details some of the errors that were encountered. These errors were remedied during runs by removing the offending AraOut file (which had too high of a fitness score due to a weight being calculated to be greater than 1, which shouldn't be possible) and have since been prevented by modifying the data file AraSim uses to calculate the weights. |
