Populations are spatial, e.g. for “speciation”
- interaction (mating, competition) localized to maintain diversity
Populations have structure, e.g. niche protection
- competition will be stronger if many individuals do the same to maintain diversity
Diploidy with dominance / recessivity
N-point crossover and other variants
Morphogenesis instead of simple function mapping (allowing for modularity, making crossover less fatal)
