Abstract
The plant propagation algorithm is a crossoverless population based evolutionary algorithm, defaultly deploying the plus-selection method for survivor selection - combining parents and offspring population and then selecting the best popSize individuals. In this study, we explore eight different survivor selection methods (plus and comma selection, tournament selection with and without replacement, elitist tournament selection, linear ranking selection and (elitist) roulette wheel selection) on 59 continuous benchmark test function instances and compare the results.
