In recent years, the population algorithms are becoming increasingly robust and easy to use, based on Darwin's Theory of Evolution, perform a search for the best solution around a population that will progress according to several generations.This paper present variants of hybrid genetic algorithm -Genetic Algorithm and a bio-inspired hybrid algorithm -Particle Swarm Optimization, both combined with the local method -Powell Method.The developed methods were tested with twelve test functions from unconstrained optimization context.
