Genetic algorithm with a crossover elitist preservation mechanism for protein–ligand docking

Abstract Protein–ligand docking plays an important role in computer-aided pharmaceutical development. Protein–ligand docking can be defined as a search algorithm with a scoring function, whose aim is to determine the conformation of the ligand and the receptor with the lowest energy. Hence, to impro...
