Abstract

This paper explains an improved Differential Evolution algorithm based on adaptation of crossover rate and scaling factor using diversity control. Local search is applied to aid convergence process. The mutation strategies involved are modified using random localized method of vector selection to enhance performance. The proposed methodology is applied to SaDE. The proposed Diversity Controlled Parameter adapted Differential Evolution with Local Search (DCPaDE-LS) harmonically coordinates a balance between global and local search, thus ensuring a diversity dynamic which guarantees fast and efficient improvements in the search until detection of a solution with high performance. The performance of the proposed DCPaDE-LS is compared on a set of 26 bound-constrained benchmark functions for 10 and 30 dimensions with respect to average function evaluations (NFE) and success rate (SR) in 30 independent trials. Results show that, proposed method gives better SR for high-dimensional multimodal functions and saving in NFE for most functions.
