Abstract

We consider the runtime property of discrete linear functions in (1 + 1) Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs), Partially Ordered mutation (PO-mutation) and Jansen’s model, Partially Ordered Evolutionary Algorithm (PO-EA). We analyze the process of evolution. This study was motivated by the paper of Jansen treating the runtime property of (1 + 1) EA on monotonic functions by means of probabilistic theory. As linear functions are special cases of monotonic function, we analyze their behavior. We show that the (1 + 1) EA can obtain an optimum solution at a stable hitting time for discrete linear functions. When the mutation rate is weak, on the order of 1/l, most monotonic functions behave similarly and can be approximated well by the PO-mutation model.
