Evolution Algorithm

In multimodal optimization, the original differential evolution algorithm is easy to duplicate and miss points of the optimal value. To solve this problem, a modified differential evolution algorithm, called niche differential evolution (NDE), is proposed. In the algorithm, the basic differential evolution algorithm is improved based on the niche technology. The rationality to construct the proposed algorithm is discussed. Shubert function, a representative multimodal optimization problem is used to verify the algorithm. The results show that the proposed algorithm can find all global optimum points quickly without strict request for parameters, so it is a good approach to find all global optimum points for multimodal functions.

Mutation Strategies

One of the key points resulting in the success of differential evolution (DE) is its mechanism of different mutation strategies for generating mutant vectors. In this paper, we also present a novel mutation strategy inspired by the velocity updating scheme of particle swarm optimization (PSO). The proposed approach is called HDE, which conducts the mutation strategy on the global best vector for each generation. Experimental studies on 8 well-known benchmark functions show that HDE outperforms other three compared DE algorithms in most test cases.
