Resumen:
Abstract. This chapter focuses on sampling
methods with emphasis in stochastic sampling methods. The chapter begins with a brief review about how sampling methods impact
in Evolutionary Computation (EC) performance. The next sections develop the
theory and the results about sampling stochastic generation methods. The answers of several questions about EC performance are behind these methods. The
explanation attempts clarify those issues related to genetic diversity or to
gene or individual selections. The third section describe the specific
mechanisms used in EC to generate samples from the population. These mechanisms
are based in the adequacy of the sampling methods previously explained. The
stratified versions of the classical mechanisms are included and their impacts
on genetic diversity are discussed. The chapter include bibliographic and
journal references in order to deepen the knowledge in each issue. Some journal references
about successful implementations will be included too.
