Improved Differential Evolution via Cuckoo Search Operator

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 7663))

Abstract

Differential Evolution (DE) is a very popular optimization algorithm for solving numerical optimization problems. It is simple yet powerful algorithm, which has shown effective performance in many optimization problems. In this paper, DECSO that uses the Abandon operator of Cuckoo search to improve the exploration ability of the original DE was proposed. The experimental studies on ten well-known benchmark functions have shown that the proposed approach has efficient search power and fast convergence.
