Hybrid Multi-population Based Approach for Controllers Structure and Parameters Selection

摘要

Population-based algorithms are used to solve optimization problems. In order to improve their efficiency, new ways of processing the population are investigated. One approach is to use many populations which operations are synchronized with each other. In this article, we propose a new approach in which specified populations are processed using different population algorithms. It has been tested for a known practical problem of selecting the structure and parameters of the controller.
