چکیده

This paper examines the effects of local search on hybrid genetic algorithm performance and population sizing. It compares the performance of a self-adaptive hybrid genetic algorithm (SAHGA) to a non-adaptive hybrid genetic algorithm (NAHGA) and the simple genetic algorithm (SGA) on eight different test functions, including unimodal, multimodal and constrained optimization problems. The results show that the hybrid genetic algorithm substantially reduces required population sizes because of the reduction in population variance. The adaptive nature of the SAHGA algorithm together with the reduction in population size allow for faster solution of the test problems without sacrificing solution quality.

Genetic Algorithms A Self Adaptive Hybrid Genetic Algorithm

This paper presents a self-adaptive hybrid genetic algorithm (SAHGA) and compares its performance to a non-adaptive hybrid genetic algorithm (NAHGA) and the simple genetic algorithm (SGA) on two multi-modal test functions with complex geometry. The SAHGA is shown to be far more robust than the NAHGA, providing fast and reliable convergence across a broad range of parameter settings. For the mos...

A Self-adaptive Hybrid Genetic Algorihm for Optimal Groundwater Remediation Design By

Groundwater contamination is the result of multiple human activities, such as agriculture, industrial practices and military operations. The traditional remediation approach is to combine pump-and-treat for plume containment and contaminant capture, with other remediation technology for source control. Pump-and-treat systems are expensive, typically requiring high installation and operation cos...
