چکیده

Evolution strategies are inspired in biology and form part of a larger research field known as evolutionary algorithms. Those strategies perform a random search in the space of admissible functions, aiming to optimize some given objective function. We show that simple evolution strategies are a useful tool in optimal control, permitting one to obtain, in an efficient way, good approximations to the solutions of some recent and challenging optimal control problems.

THE CMA EVOLUTION STRATEGY BASED SIZE OPTIMIZATION OF TRUSS STRUCTURES

Evolution Strategies (ES) are a class of Evolutionary Algorithms based on Gaussian mutation and deterministic selection. Gaussian mutation captures pair-wise dependencies between the variables through a covariance matrix. Covariance Matrix Adaptation (CMA) is a method to update this covariance matrix. In this paper, the CMA-ES, which has found many applications in solving continuous optimizatio...

Fuzzy logic controlled differential evolution to solve economic load dispatch problems

In recent years, soft computing methods have generated a large research interest. The synthesis of the fuzzy logic and the evolutionary algorithms is one of these methods. A particular evolutionary algorithm (EA) is differential evolution (DE). As for any EA, DE algorithm also requires parameters tuning to achieve desirable performance. In this paper tuning the perturbation factor vector of DE ...

Optimization of the Prismatic Core Sandwich Panel under Buckling Load and Yield Stress Constraints using an Improved Constrained Differential Evolution Algorithm

In this study, weight optimization of the prismatic core sandwich panel under transverse and longitudinal loadings has been independently investigated. To solve the optimization problems corresponding to the mentioned loadings, a new Improved Constrained Differential Evolution (ICDE) algorithm based on the multi-objective constraint handling method is implemented. The constraints of the problem...

Multi-Objective Optimization Using Evolution Strategies

The present paper gives an overview of different versions of Evolution Strategies, namely the (1+1) Evolution Strategy, the Higher Order (μ/ρ , λ ) Evolution Strategy and the Niching [κ(μ/ρ ,λ )] Evolution Strategy, and how these methods can be applied to problems in Electrical Engineering. Significant features of the algorithms implemented by the authors are presented. Finally, results are dis...

The Dynamics of Evolution Strategies in the

An analysis of the dynamic behavior of Evolution Strategies applied to Trav-eling Salesman Problems is presented. For a special class of Traveling Salesman Problems a stochastic model of the optimization process is introduced. Based on this model diierent features determining the optimization process of Evolution Strategies are analyzed. In addition the stochastic model is extended to explain s...
