Can HP-protein folding be solved with genetic algorithms? Maybe not
Conference Proceeding
Jansen, R., Horn, R., van Eck, O., Version, K., Thomson, S. L., & van den Berg, D. (2023)
Can HP-protein folding be solved with genetic algorithms? Maybe not. In Proceedings of the 15th International Joint Conference on Computational Intelligence (131-140). https://doi.org/10.5220/0012248500003595
Genetic algorithms might not be able to solve the HP-protein folding problem because creating random individuals for an initial population is very hard, if not impossible. The...
