What is repair operator in constrained Genetic Algorithms?

Updated May 16, 2026

Short answer

A repair operator fixes infeasible solutions to satisfy constraints.

Deep explanation

Instead of discarding invalid chromosomes, repair operators modify them to make them feasible. This improves efficiency in constrained optimization by preserving useful genetic material.
