In this paper, we present a new hybrid algorithm which is a combination of a hybrid genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization. We focus in this research on a hybrid method combining two heuristic optimization techniques, genetic algorithms (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) for the global optimization. Denoted asGA-PSO, this hybrid technique incorporates concepts fromGAandPSOand creates individuals in a new generation not only by crossover and mutation operations as found inGAbut also by mechanisms ofPSO. The performance of the two algorithms has been evaluated using several experiments.

In this study, a novel multi-objective hybrid algorithm (MHGH, multi-objective HPSO-GA hybrid algorithm) is developed by crossing the heuristic particle swarm optimization (HPSO) algorithm with a genetic algorithm (GA) based on the concept of Pareto optimality. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the MHGH, the optimizations of four unconstrained mathematical functions and four constrained truss structural problems are tested and compared to the results using several other classic algorithms. The results show that the MHGH improves the convergence rate and precision of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) and increases its robustness.
