A genetic algorithm is a class of adaptive stochastic optimization algorithms involving search and optimization. Genetic algorithms were first used by Holland (1975). The basic idea is to try to mimic a simple picture of natural selection in order to fin
Indeed, the genetic algorithm is a stochastic optimization algorithm; it is to find an approximate solution of a hard problem. However, genetic algorithm has a great tendency to converge to a local minimum and stay stuck in adverse solutions. To solve this problem, we study in this paper the...
Genetic algorithm solver for mixed-integer or continuous-variable optimization, constrained or unconstrained Genetic algorithm solves smooth or nonsmooth optimization problems with any types of constraints, including integer constraints. It is a stochastic, population-based algorithm that searches randomly by ...
A genetic algorithm is an optimization method that mimics Darwin’s principle of the survival of the fittest over a set (population) of candidate solutions (individuals) that evolves from one generation to another. From:Applied Energy,2015
They can be used to find approximate solutions to numerical optimization problems in cases where finding the exact optimum is prohibitively expensive, or where no algorithm is known. However, such applications can encounter problems that sometimes delay, if not prevent, finding the optimal solutions ...
Secondly, we evaluate preliminarily the performance of the genetic algorithm itself for a deterministic model with a single machine that is a special case of the eclectic model. We have found that the genetic algorithm is so effective that we can apply it to the eclectic model. Thirdly, we ...
The genetic algorithm is a method for solving both constrained and unconstrained optimization problems that is based on natural selection, the process that drives biological evolution. The genetic algorithm repeatedly modifies a population of individual solutions. At each step, the genetic algorithm select...

The effective utilization of these also suggests a manipulation of the genetic algorithm itself, in which the population is evanescently permitted to grow beyond its normal size. 展开 关键词: Discrete optimization Genetic algorithm Linear constraints ...
Simple genetic algorithm(SGA)was a stochastic global optimization algorithm, however,due to its poor performance in local optimization and poor results to optimize kinetic model parameters of biodolesulfurization,a new multi-mutation genetic algorithm(MGA)was designed to improve the global optimization ...
