Parallel Migration Model Employing Various Adaptive Variants of Differential Evolution

  • Conference paper
Swarm and Evolutionary Computation (EC 2012, SIDE 2012)

Abstract

The influence of migration on the performance of differential evolution algorithm is studied. Six adaptive variants of differential evolution are applied to a parallel migration model with a star topology. The parallel algorithm with several different settings of parameters controlling the migration was experimentally compared with the adaptive serial algorithms in six benchmark problems of dimension D = 30. The parallel algorithm was more efficient than the best serial adaptive DE variant in a half of the problems.
