To de- sign an EC algorithm, one needs to determine a set of algorithmic configurations like operator selections and parameter settings. How to design an effective and ef- ficient adaptation scheme for adjusting the configura- tions of EC algorithms has become a significant and promising research topic in the EC research community. This paper intends to provide a comprehensive survey on this rapidly growing field. We present a classification of adaptive EC (AEC) algorithms from the perspective of how an adaptation scheme is designed, involving the adaptation objects, adaptation evidences, and adapta- tion methods. In particular, by analyzing tile popula- tion distribution characteristics of EC algorithms, we discuss why and how the evolutionary state information of EC can be estimated and utilized for designing ef- fective EC adaptation schemes. Two AEC algorithms using the idea of evolutionary state estimation, includ- ing the clustering-based adaptive genetic algorithm and the adaptive particle swarm optimization algorithm are presented in detail. Some potential directions for the re- search of AECs are also discussed in this paper.展开更多

A plausible mechanism explanation for this rearrangement reaction was presented. It was suggested that the rearrangement reaction could be referred to the thermodynamics transposition leading to the predominant 5-arylureylene-3-benzylthio-1,2,4-triazole energy preferentially.展开更多
