In this paper, we propose simulated binary crossover with lognormal probability distribution (SBX-l), a new recombination operator for real-coded GAs. It is a parent-centric operator uses lognormal distribution for spread factor. SBX-l operator with rigid and flexible bound is proposed. Experimental results using test functions, which are commonly used in studies of evolutionary algorithms, are obtained and compared with SBX operator. It is found that, within our test bench, the SBX-l operator works better than SBX operator.
