It is a common choice in the continuous evolutionary optimization, but in practice it exhibits some properties that significantly reduce its exploratory abilities, which are crucial in the search for multiple solutions.
This improves exploratory abilities of the GA ‐ settling in local extremes of the fitness landscape is less likely [ 109, 110].
This exploratory study compared consumers' ability to use a leaflet based on the EC model leaflet and an alternative leaflet based on best practice in information design (Mark II).
Gaggle is an environment for exploratory analysis, emphasizing the ability to easily move data from one interactive graphical application to another.
An exploratory analysis demonstrates a significant ability to predict average Ta at each station using common environmental predictors.
The bidirectional nature of the O2PLS model made it more fit for exploratory purposes, but decreased predictive ability.
Qualitative in-depth interview is an exploratory research technique with the ability of giving well-grounded, rich descriptive explanations (Sage Gordon and Langmaid 1998; Arksey and Knight 1999).
Our experimental design allowed us to examine differences in innovation ability, neophobic and exploratory behavior as a function of the ecological context from which each myna originated, while controlling for motivation during the problem-solving tests.
Knockout mice lacking synaptophysin are viable but show increased exploratory behavior and reduced learning ability and memory [ 81], indicating that this gene can be directly involved in behavioral variation.
