The approach is similar to that of genetic algorithms, although it is based on the idea of a series of ``migrations'' by a fixed set of individuals, rather than the development of successive generations. It can be applied to any cost-minimisation problem with a bounded parameter space, and is robust to local minima. authors: - family-names: Clayden given-names: Jon email: code@clayden.org repository: https://jonclayden.r-universe.dev repository-code: https://github.com/jonclayden/soma/ commit: 9623ddb394b1e1cc7769b4edbfc882f2764ee618 url: https://github.com/jonclayden/soma/ date-released: '2022-05-01' contact: - family-names: Clayden given-names: Jon email: code@clayden.org
