Goal-oriented preservation of essential genetic information by offspring selection

This contribution proposes an enhanced and generic selection model for Genetic Algorithms (GAs) and Genetic Programming (GP) which is able to preserve the alleles which are part of a high quality solution. Some selected aspects of these enhanced techniques are discussed exemplarily on the basis of standardized benchmark problems.
