Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Correct answer: Genetic algorithm

Why this is correct:

  • Genetic algorithms are inspired by biological evolution and repeatedly generate new populations of candidate solutions.

  • They use selection based on a fitness function, crossover (recombination) to mix solution traits, and mutation to introduce variation.

  • Over successive generations these operators tend to produce increasingly better solutions to the problem.

Why the other choices are incorrect:

  • Self organizing neural network: An unsupervised clustering/topology-preserving method, not an evolutionary search process.

  • Back propagation neural network: A supervised weight-update method using gradient-based optimization, not selection/crossover/mutation.

  • Forward propagation neural network: Refers to computing outputs through a feedforward network; it is an operational step, not an evolutionary algorithm.
