abstract = "The basic selection ideas of the different
representatives of evolutionary algorithms are
sometimes quite diverse. The selection concept of
Genetic Algorithms (GAs) and Genetic Programming (GP)
is basically realised by the selection of above-average
parents for reproduction, whereas Evolution Strategies
(ES) use the fitness of newly evolved offspring as the
basis for selection (survival of the fittest due to
birth surplus). This contribution considers aspects of
population genetics and ES in order to propose an
enhanced and generic selection model for GAs which is
able to preserve the alleles which are part of a high
quality solution. Some selected aspects of these
enhanced techniques are discussed exemplary on the
basis of the Travelling Salesman Benchmark (TSP)
problem instances.",
