We compiled our data analyses and supplemental documentation into this nifty web-accessible book using bookdown.

This supplemental material includes the following selection schemes:

  • Truncation (Section 2)
  • Tournament (Section 3)
  • Genotypic fitness sharing (Section 4)
  • Phenotypic fitness sharing (Section 5)
  • Nondominated sorting (Section 6)
  • Novelty search (Section 7)

1.3 Computer Setup

These analyses were conducted in the following computing environment:
