Sinusoidal Signals

Estimating the parameters of sinusoidal signals is a fundamental problem in signal processing and in time-series analysis. Although various genetic algorithms and their hybrids have been introduced to the field, the problems pertaining to complex implementation, premature convergence, and accuracy are still unsolved. To overcome these drawbacks, an enhanced genetic algorithm (EGA) based on biological evolutionary and mathematical ecological theory is originally proposed in this study; wherein a prejudice-free selection mechanism, a two-step crossover (TSC), and an adaptive mutation strategy are designed to preserve population diversity and to maintain a synergy between convergence and search ability. In order to validate the performance, benchmark function-based studies are conducted, and the results are compared with that of the standard genetic algorithm (SGA), the particle swarm optimization (PSO), the cuckoo search (CS), and the cloud model-based genetic algorithm (CMGA). The results reveal that the proposed method outperforms the others in terms of accuracy, convergence speed, and robustness against noise. Finally, parameter estimations of real-life sinusoidal signals are performed, validating the superiority and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Successive Generations

Recent development of large databases, especially those in genetics and proteomics, is pushing the development of novel computational algorithms that implement rapid and accurate search strategies. One successful approach has been to use artificial intelligence and methods, including pattern recognition (e.g. neural networks) and optimization techniques (e.g. genetic algorithms). The focus of this paper is on optimizing the design of genetic algorithms by using an adaptive mutation rate that is derived from comparing the fitness values of successive generations. We propose a novel pseudoderivative-based mutation rate operator designed to allow a genetic algorithm to escape local optima and successfully continue to the global optimum. Once proven successful, this algorithm can be implemented to solve real problems in neurology and bioinformatics. As a first step towards this goal, we tested our algorithm on two 3-dimensional surfaces with multiple local optima, but only one global optimum, as well as on the N-queens problem, an applied problem in which the function that maps the curve is implicit. For all tests, the adaptive mutation rate allowed the genetic algorithm to find the global optimal solution, performing significantly better than other search methods, including genetic algorithms that implement fixed mutation rates.

Clustering Problems

Due to many of the clustering algorithms based on GAs suffer from degeneracy and are easy to fall in local optima, a novel dynamic genetic algorithm for clustering problems (DGA) is proposed. The algorithm adopted the variable length coding to represent individuals and processed the parallel crossover operation in the subpopulation with individuals of the same length, which allows the DGA algorithm clustering to explore the search space more effectively and can automatically obtain the proper number of clusters and the proper partition from a given data set; the algorithm used the dynamic crossover probability and adaptive mutation probability, which prevented the dynamic clustering algorithm from getting stuck at a local optimal solution. The clustering results in the experiments on three artificial data sets and two real-life data sets show that the DGA algorithm derives better performance and higher accuracy on clustering problems.

In this study, two new techniques are proposed for accelerating the multi-point optimization of an airfoil shape by genetic algorithms. In such multi-point evolutionary optimization, the objective function has to be evaluated several times more than a single-point optimization. Thus, excessive computational time is crucial in these problems particularly, when computational fluid dynamics is used for fitness function evaluation. Two new techniques of preadaptive range operator and adaptive mutation rate are proposed. An unstructured grid Navier–Stokes flow solver with a two-equation [Formula: see text] turbulence model is used to evaluate the objective function. The new methods are applied for optimum design of a transonic airfoil at two speed conditions. The results show that using the new methods can increase the aerodynamic efficiency of optimum airfoil at each operating condition with about 30% less computational time in comparison with the conventional genetic algorithm approach.

The fields of molecular biology and neurobiology have advanced rapidly over the last two decades. These advances have resulted in the development of large proteomic and genetic databases that need to be searched for the prediction, early detection and treatment of neuropathologies and other genetic disorders. This need, in turn, has pushed the development of novel computational algorithms that are critical for searching genetic databases. One successful approach has been to use artificial intelligence and pattern recognition algorithms, such as neural networks and optimization algorithms (e.g. genetic algorithms). The focus of this paper is on optimizing the design of genetic algorithms by using an adaptive mutation rate based on the fitness function of passing generations. We propose a novel pseudo-derivative based mutation rate operator designed to allow a genetic algorithm to escape local optima and successfully continue to the global optimum. Once proven successful, this algorithm can be implemented to solve real problems in neurology and bioinformatics. As a first step towards this goal, we tested our algorithm on two 3-dimensional surfaces with multiple local optima, but only one global optimum, as well as on the N-queens problem, an applied problem in which the function that maps the curve is implicit. For all tests, the adaptive mutation rate allowed the genetic algorithm to find the global optimal solution, performing significantly better than other search methods, including genetic algorithms that implement fixed mutation rates.
