[ase-users] Some question about Genetic Algorithm

[Dianwei Hou]

 Hi,

I do some test about genetic algorithm examples on ase website and have
some questions.

Firstly, for some  parameters,I am not sure.
population_size = 20: the number of structures in each generation.
n_to_test = 100: maximum number of generations allowed for the simulation.

Is that right?

Second, I put the code in a file and submit the job. When it finished, does
it finish calculation of one generation or one hundred generations. If it
finished one generation, is it generated new structures for the second
generation and stored new structures in database. So if I want to continue
to optimization the second generation structures, I will to submit the job
again.

Thank you very much!

Best regards,
Dianwei Hou
