And the improvements often come in big jumps -- or lots of little jumps. It
happens when a gene successfully strays away from the local maxima that it's
been stuck on and climbs to a new local maxima. In n-dimensional space, there
are very few peaks and troughs relative to the number of saddles. If you look
at the eigenvalues of the matrix when a gene begins to stray away, some really
interesting velocities show up and you can even make predictions from that as
to how far it will climb up the next hill. Fascinating stuff, that genetic
hillclimbing. :-) :-)
