Enhancement of a genetic algorithm for optical orthogonal code design using simulated annealing
Chin Kuan Ho, Yashwant Prasad Singh, Sze Wei Lee · 2003
The simulated annealing (SA) method is applied to the initial population of a genetic algorithm (GA) that was designed to construct optical orthogonal codes. This has improved the quality of the initial population, with an increase in the average fitness value and the number of above-average individuals. This in turn, has enabled the genetic algorithm to converge faster.
