Discrete Differential Evolution with Fitness Uniform Selection Scheme
Zhou Yalan, Yaohui Zhu · Journal of Chinese Computer Systems · 2012
How to apply differential evolution to the discrete field is an important problem.A discrete differential evolution with fitness uniform selection scheme is proposed.In the proposed algorithm,each individual has an equal chance of being selected to guide the algorithm evolve.The selection scheme helps avoid the local optimum problem which is led to by the population diversity rapidly decrease of the greedy selection.Simulation results on multidimensional knack problem show that the proposed algorithm has good performance.
