“…To demonstrate the position-based crossover operating, an example of schematic diagram is given in Figure 1. As shown in the figure, in order to generate offspring P o1 and P o2 from the parent frogs P p1 and P p2 , firstly, the genes of [g2, g4, g5] in P p1 are selected randomly with their positions [2,4,5], and so the unselected genes in P p1 are [g1, g3, g6] with their positions [1,3,6]. According to the selected [g2, g4, g5] in P p1 , we find the same [g2, g4, g5] with their positions [2,3,5] in P p2 , and then the unselected positions are [1,4,6] with genes [g3, g6, g1] in P p2 ; we crossover the corresponding genes in unselected [g1, g3, g6] of P p1 and unselected [g3, g6, g1] of P p2 , and then we obtain the offspring P o1 and P o2 .…”
