Question
Can you briefly explain the concept of genetic algorithm and what are the major differences between this algorithm and other AI algorithms? Please explain the concept from the angle of IT but not tend towards biology although it is the basal knowledge. Can you provide some URls regarding the GA in order for me to further this algorithm into detail. Thank you.

Answer
Hello Yap Hui,

there are many resources on the web that explain GA's nicely, so i think that it would be best to just give you a URL and read about them from there. Here's a link i found, which is quite nice:

Hope it helps.

Best

Expertise

I can answer most of the questions about the workings of a Fuzzy Logic machine, from the basics up to a certain advanced point.Questions regarding applications of Fuzzy systems intregrating with other technologies such as Neural Nets or Genetic Algorithms are propably out of my reach although,with some research,i could try to answer them(i have working knowledge of Neural Nets an Genetic Algorithms but i`m far from being consider an expert to these areas).

Experience

I have experience in Fuzzy Logic gained in projects i have been part of.The last project was a robotic vehicle that used a Fuzzy Logic path tracker which i designed.
