title: 'gatbxr: Port of the Sheffield Genetic Algorithm Toolbox for ''MATLAB'''
version: 0.2.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.gatbxr
abstract: Provides the functions of the Genetic Algorithm Toolbox for 'MATLAB' developed
  at the University of Sheffield (Chipperfield et al. 1994, <https://github.com/UoS-CODeM/GA-Toolbox>),
  rewritten in R. It includes operators for creating binary, integer and real-valued
  populations, rank-based and linear fitness assignment, roulette wheel and stochastic
  universal sampling selection, single-point, multi-point, shuffle and reduced surrogate
  crossover, discrete, intermediate and line recombination, discrete and breeder genetic
  algorithm mutation, reinsertion of offspring, and migration between subpopulations.
