Introduction to Genetic Algorithms — Including Example Code

A genetic algorithm is a search heuristic that is inspired by Charles Darwin’s theory of natural evolution. This algorithm reflects the process of natural selection where the fittest individuals are selected for reproduction in order to produce offspring of the next generation.

Notion of Natural Selection
The process of natural selection starts with the selection of fittest individuals from a population. They produce offspring which inherit the characteristics of the parents and will be added to the next generation. If parents have better fitness, their offspring will be better than parents and have a better chance at surviving. This process keeps on iterating and at the end, a generation with the fittest individuals will be found.
This notion can be applied for a search problem. We consider a set of solutions for a problem and select the set of best ones out of them.
Five phases are considered in a genetic algorithm.
Initial population
Fitness function
Selection
Crossover
Mutation
Initial Population
The process begins with a set of individuals which is called a Population. Each individual is a solution to the problem you want to solve.
An individual is characterized by a set of parameters (variables) known as Genes. Genes are joined into a string to form a Chromosome (solution).
In a genetic algorithm, the set of genes of an individual is represented using a string, in terms of an alphabet. Usually, binary values are used (string of 1s and 0s). We say that we encode the genes in a chromosome.

Why is health care so expensive? List at least three factors that contribute to the cost of health care.
Answer:Hospitals, doctors, and nurses all charge more in the U.S. than in other countries, with hospital costs increasing much faster than professional salaries. In other countries, prices for drugs and healthcare are at least partially controlled by the government. In the U.S. prices depend on market forces.

Read the entry from Bruno’s blog about animal welfare. 15 MINS LEFT PLEASE HURRY!!!
I encourage everyone to do what they can to help animals. Animals cannot help themselves, so it is up to us to protect them. A recent nationwide study conducted shows that 30–45 percent of dogs and cats are homeless, and 15–20 percent those homeless animals end up injured or in a animal shelter. It is clear from the numbers that people need to be more concerned about protecting animal welfare.
What claim is Bruno making?
Too many animals are in shelters.
Too many animals get injured.

Discuss how the prevention paradox can be applied (or does not apply) to this outcome among relevant populations in your practice.
Answer:
The prevention paradox describes a principle of prevention that the individual health gain through preventive interventions is large for people with a high health risk, but that this has only a small effect on the overall population and - conversely - the individual gain for people with a low risk is small despite a considerable overall effect through preventive measures for large parts of the general population.
Thus, when general health measures are applied to the common population, these will only have a noticeable positive effect only in those patients who represent a high risk for the disease to be attacked, but will not have a noticeable effect on a large scale.

Which statement below is TRUE about the function of pheromones?
1 poin
pheromones are secreted by the thyroid and produce insulin
pheromones are released into the environment rather than being held within the body
tissues
female pheromones tell males which females have compatible immune systems
O none of the above statements are true
The correct answer is B. Pheromones are released into the environment rather than being held within the body.
Explanation
Pheromones are chemical substances secreted by living beings, in order to cause specific behaviors in other individuals of the same species. They are a means of transmitting volatile signals produced in liquid form, which are then dispersed throughout the environment. This is used by different species of plants and animals as a means of communication and almost all send one or more codes by this means, both to attract or reject each other sexually as well as for other purposes. According to the above, the correct answer is B. Pheromones are released into the environment rather tan being held within the body.

A physician orders amoxicillin 50mg/ml for a child at 1ml po q8h for 10 days. What is the total volume that must be dispensed in ml, if amoxicillin stock is 125mg/5ml
Answer:
The key (C) is correct because the dose is 1 mL three times a day for 10 days which is 30 mL. The dose is 50 mg/mL so 50 mg x 30 mL is 1500 mg total in 10 days. If your stock concentration is 12 5mg/5 mL, then you will need 60 mL of that stock solution to provide the total dose for 10 days (i.e., 1500 mg x 5 mL divided by 125 mg = 60 mL) or 1500 mg/X mL = 125 mg/5 mL and solve for X
Explanation:
The total volume that must be dispensed in ml is 60ml
First step is calculate the ml when the dose is taken 3 times per day for 10 days
ml=1 mL *3* 10 days
mL=30 mL
Second step is to calculate the Total mg in 10 days
Total mg=50 mg/mL *30 mL
Total mg=1500 mg
Last step is to calculate total volume that must be dispensed in ml
Total volume in ml=1500 mg * 5 mL /125 m
Total volume in ml=7500/125m
Total volume in ml= 60 mL
Inconclusion The total volume that must be dispensed in ml is 60ml.
