Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Correct matching with brief reasoning:
Worst Individual → Guarantees that the entire population will be of a minimum standard. Reason: If the worst individual reaches a threshold, every individual is at or above that minimum.
Best Individual → Faster search convergence, guaranteeing at least one best solution. Reason: Stopping when the best reaches the target ensures at least one high-quality solution has been found, often yielding quicker apparent convergence.
Sum of Fitness → Guarantees that virtually all individuals in the population will be within a particular fitness range. Reason: A high total (or average) fitness implies that most individuals contribute substantial fitness, indicating a population concentrated in a good fitness range.
Median Fitness → At least half of the individuals will be better than or equal to the convergence value. Reason: By definition, the median value means 50% of the population is at or above that fitness threshold.
Therefore the correct set of pairings is: Worst Individual → the entire population minimum standard; Best Individual → faster convergence guaranteeing at least one best solution; Sum of Fitness → virtually all individuals within a fitness range; Median Fitness → at least half the individuals meet the convergence value.
