An '''evolutionary algorithm''' (also '''EA''', '''Artificial Evolution''') is an [[metaheuristic]] [[optimization (computer science)|optimization]] [[algorithm]] using evolutionary techniques inspired by mechanisms from [[biological evolution]] such as natural [[reproduction]], [[mutation]], [[recombination]], [[natural selection]] and [[survival of the fittest]] to find an optimal configuration for a specific system within specific constraints.
