Hi there, I am reading a paper whose GA and MC are complained and I can't understand how. the problem is to estimate parameters of mixed logit model. it get started by selection 70 random numbers for parameters by Monte Carlo simulation. then some chromosomes are selected with higher fitness but I can't understand how we use MC again? I mean how new generation are produced? could you please help me? I would really appreciate it.

GA says, no other chomosomes are better, or worse. All parts equal. And new generation is produced from mother's and father's cromosomes evenly and randomly. Here is no place to use MC.
