In IGAE, the new methods for computing antibody similarity, expected reproduction probability, and clonal selection probability were given. IGAE has three features. The first is that the similarities of two antibodies in structure and quality are all defined in the form of percentage, which helps to describe the similarity of two antibodies more accurately and to reduce the computational burden effectively. The second is that with the elitist selection and elitist crossover strategy IGAE is able to find the globally optimal solution of a given problem. The third is that the formula of expected reproduction probability of antibody can be adjusted through a parameter r, which helps to balance the population diversity and the convergence speed of IGAE so that IGAE can find the globally optimal solution of a given problem more rapidly. Two different complex multi-modal functions were selected to test the validity of IGAE. The experimental results show that IGAE can find the globally maximum/minimum values of the two functions rapidly. The experimental results also confirm that IGAE is of better performance in convergence speed, solution variation behavior, and computational efficiency compared with the canonical genetic algorithm with the elitism and the immune genetic algorithm with the information entropy and elitism.展开更多

Network-wide management and optimization problems are typicallyvery complex with a huge solution space, large number of variables, and multiple objectives. Heuristic algorithms can solve theseproblems in an acceptable time but are usually limited to some particular problem circumstances. On the other hand, evolutionaryalgorithms(EAs), which are general stochastic algorithms inspired by the natural biological evolution and/or social behavior of species, can theoretically be used to solve any complex optimization problems including those found in SDNs. This paper reviewsfour types of EAs that are widely applied in current SDNs: Genetic Algorithms(GAs), Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO), Ant Colony Optimization(ACO), and Simulated Annealing(SA) by discussing their techniques, summarizing their representative applications, and highlighting their issues and future works. To the best of our knowledge, our work is the first that compares the tech-niques and categorizes the applications of these four EAs in SDNs.展开更多

But these coding strategies have their own advantages and disadvantages for the optimization of functions. In this paper a new Decimal Coding Strategy (DCS), which is convenient for space division and alterable precision, was proposed, and the theory analysis of its implicit parallelism and convergence was also discussed. We also redesign several genetic operators for the decimal code. In order to utilize the historial information of the existing individuals in the process of evolution and avoid repeated exploring, the strategies of space shrinking and precision alterable, are adopted. Finally, the evolutionary algorithm based on decimal coding (DCEAs) was applied to the optimization of functions, the optimization of parameter, mixed-integer nonlinear programming. Comparison with traditional GAs was made and the experimental results show that the performances of DCEAS are better than the tradition GAs.展开更多

As with many existing algorithms, a traditional genetic algorithm will have limited success with this problem class, particularly as the problem size increases. A rule based genetic algorithm is proposed and demonstrated on sets of traveling salesman problems of increasing size. The solution character as well as the solution efficiency is compared against a simulated annealing technique as well as a standard genetic algorithm. The rule based genetic algorithm is shown to provide superior performance for all problem sizes considered. Furthermore, a post optimal analysis provides insight into which rules were successfully applied during the solution process which allows for rule modification to further enhance performance.展开更多

Solving these problems with continuous-variables approach then convert the continuous variables to discrete ones does not guarantee the optimal global solution. Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) have been applied successfully in combinatorial discrete optimization. Here, the mathematical basics of real-coding Genetic Algorithm are presented in addition to three other Evolutionary Algorithms: Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Ant Colony Algorithms (ACOA) and Harmony Search (HS). The EAs are presented in as unifying notations as possible in order to facilitate understanding and comparison. Our combinatorial discrete problem example is the famous benchmark case of New-York Water Supply System WSS network. The mathematical construction in addition to the obtained results of Real-coding GA applied to this case study (authors), are compared with those of the three other algorithms available in literature. The real representation of GA, with its two operators: mutation and crossover, functions significantly faster than binary and other coding and illustrates its potential as a substitute to the traditional optimization methods for water systems design and planning. The real (actual) representation is very effective and provides two near-optimal feasible solutions to the New York tunnels problem. We found that the four EAs are capable to afford hydraulically-feasible solutions with reasonable cost but our real-coding GA takes more evaluations to reach the optimal or near-optimal solutions compared to other EAs namely the HS. HS approach discovers efficiently the research space because of the random generation of solutions in every iteration, and the ability of choosing neighbor values of solution elements “changing the diameter of the pipe to the next greater or smaller commercial diameter” beside keeping good current solutions. Our proposed promising point to improve the performance of GA is by introducing completely new individuals in every generation in GA using a new “immigration” operator beside “mutation” and “crossover”.展开更多

In this paper, it is proposed to use variable length chromosomes(VLCs) in a GA-based network intrusion detection system.Fewer chromosomes with relevant features are used for rule generation. An effective fitness function is used to define the fitness of each rule. Each chromosome will have one or more rules in it. As each chromosome is a complete solution to the problem, fewer chromosomes are sufficient for effective intrusion detection. This reduces the computational time. The proposed approach is tested using Defense Advanced Research Project Agency(DARPA) 1998 data. The experimental results show that the proposed approach is efficient in network intrusion detection.展开更多

Therefore, the optimal solution usually lies on the boundary of the feasible region. In order to converge faster when solving such problems, a new ranking and selection scheme is introduced which exploits this feature of constrained problems. In conjunction with selection, a new crossover method is also presented based on three parents. When comparing the results of this new algorithm with six other evolutionary based methods, using 12 benchmark problems from the literature, it shows very encouraging performance. T-tests have been applied in this research to show if there is any statistically significance differences between the algorithms. A study has also been carried out in order to show the effect of each component of the proposed algorithm.展开更多

This model operates on a population of points in search space simultaneously, not on just one point. It uses the objective function itself, not derivative or any other additional information and guarantees the fast convergence toward the global optimum. This method avoids some weak points in genetic algorithm, such as inefficient to some local searching problems and its convergence is too early. Based on this model, an optimal design support system (IGBODS) is developed.IGBODS has been used in practice and the result shows that this model has great advantage than traditional one and promises good application in optimal design.展开更多

Circuit faults will inevitably lead to serious losses of availability or impeded mission success without self-repair over the mission duration. Traditional fault-repair methods based on redundant fault-tolerant technique are straightforward to implement, yet their area, power and weight cost can be excessive. Moreover they utilize all plug-in or component level circuits to realize redundant backup, such that their applicability is limited. Hence, a novel selfrepair technology based on evolvable hardware（EHW） and reparation balance technology（RBT） is proposed. Its cost is low, and fault self-repair of various circuits and devices can be realized through dynamic configuration. Making full use of the fault signals, correcting circuit can be found through EHW technique to realize the balance and compensation of the fault output-signals. In this paper, the self-repair model was analyzed which based on EHW and RBT technique, the specific self-repair strategy was studied, the corresponding self-repair circuit fault system was designed, and the typical faults were simulated and analyzed which combined with the actual electronic devices. Simulation results demonstrated that the proposed fault self-repair strategy was feasible. Compared to traditional techniques, fault self-repair based on EHW consumes fewer hardware resources, and the scope of fault self-repair was expanded significantly.展开更多
