C++ Genetic Algorithm implementation to solve 0/1 Knapsack problem

Genetic_Algorithm

C++ Genetic Algorithm implementation to predict a solution for the 0/1 Knapsack problem

Compares accuracy of Genetic Algorithm's prediction to the dynamic programming solution

Approach:

1. Genome represented as vector of 0 or 1 values, 1 for include item, 0 for exclude item
2. Initialize random population
3. Compute fitness of population
4. Preserve the top k organisms in the population (elitism)
5. Use tournament selection and 2 point crossover to produce next generation
6. Mutate population at the given mutation rate
7. Repeat steps 3 to 6 for the given number of Generations

genetic_algorithm's Issues

ERROR in vector

I've got an error when I was running your code

Could you please help me with this?
