Approximate Sequencing of Virtual Reels with Genetic Algorithms

Sequencing is a very popular mathematical problem in the field of genetics. DNA sequence information is organized as pairs of the four nucleotide bases - Cytosine, Guanine, Adenine, and Thymine. In some cases, only chunks are known but the full sequence is unknown. The problem of sequencing is a reconstruction of the full sequence from the known chunks. Sequencing is applied also in other fields as encoding and cryptography. This research proposes approximate sequencing of virtual reels used in gambling slot machine games. The optimization process is done with classical genetic algorithms, but optimality is estimated into chunks space instead of sequences space.
