Directional Distribution-based Mutation for Evolutionary Algorithms
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, a concept of directional mutations for phenotypic evolutionary algorithms is presented. The proposed approach allows, in a very convenient way, to adapt the probability measure underlying the mutation operator during evolutionary process. Moreover -stable distributions are used to generate the mutation radius. A correlation analysis between control parameters – stability index , slope parameter and concentration parameter – is done using simulating experiments.

New Ant Colony Algorithm Method based on Mutation for FPGA Placement Problem
Many real world problems can be modelled as an optimization problem. Evolutionary algorithms are used to solve these problems. Ant colony algorithm is a class of evolutionary algorithms that have been inspired of some specific ants looking for food in the nature. These ants leave trail pheromone on the ground to mark good ways that can be followed by other members of the group. Ant colony optim...
متن کاملA Novel Objective Function for Directional Overcurrent Relays Coordination
Directional overcurrent relays (DOCRs) are widely used to protect power systems. For optimal coordination of DOCRs, several techniques have been proposed to solve this problem. A common way of optimal coordination of DOCRs is using evolutionary algorithms such as genetic algorithm (GA). In this paper, a novel strategy for DOCRs coordination is proposed. In the proposed strategy, a new objective...

Two meta-evolutionary optimization strategies described in this paper accelerate the convergence of evolutionary programming algorithms while still retaining much of their ability to deal with multi-modal problems. The strategies , called directional mutation and recorded step in this paper, can operate independently but together they greatly enhance the ability of evolutionary programming algo...
