abstract = "It is generally accepted that diversity is associated
with success in evolutionary algorithms. However,
diversity is a broad concept that can be measured and
defined in a multitude of ways. To date, most
evolutionary computation research has measured
diversity using the richness and/or evenness of a
particular genotypic or phenotypic property. While
these metrics are informative, we hypothesize that
other diversity metrics are more strongly predictive of
success. Phylogenetic diversity metrics are a class of
metrics popularly used in biology, which take into
account the evolutionary history of a population. Here,
we investigate the extent to which 1) these metrics
provide different information than those traditionally
used in evolutionary computation, and 2) these metrics
better predict the long-term success of a run of
evolutionary computation. We find that, in most cases,
phylogenetic metrics behave meaningfully differently
from other diversity metrics. Moreover, our results
suggest that phylogenetic diversity is indeed a better
predictor of success.",
