This is obviously at odds with genetic algorithms, the quintessential evolutionary computation algorithm that selects good solutions in an attempt to make better solutions.

Disjunctive Tasks: A group selects one solution or product from a pool of members solutions or products.

Fitness proportionate selection, also known as roulette wheel selection, is a genetic operator used in genetic algorithms for selecting potentially useful solutions for recombination.

Stochastic universal sampling (SUS) is a technique used in genetic algorithms for selecting potentially useful solutions for recombination.

Technocrats are 'statists' who consider that state policies are available to manage all social problems, although in selecting solutions they may lean to the right (favouring market management and abhorring the inefficiencies of state socialism) or to the left (deploring the waste of social resources under capitalism).

Selecting solutions: Positive to performance but not likely to enhance satisfaction.

However, to get compliance, experts recommend involving all residents in selecting solutions and penalties rather than leaving these decisions to the board.

Reward-based selection is a technique used in evolutionary algorithms for selecting potentially useful solutions for recombination.

Most important, gardeners must select sound solutions and give them time to work.

This is decidedly at odds with a GA that selects good solutions in an attempt to make better solutions.
