Differential Evolution: A survey of theoretical analyses
Abstract
Abstract Differential Evolution (DE) is a state-of-the art global optimization technique. Considerable research effort has been made to improve this algorithm and apply it to a variety of practical problems. Nevertheless, analytical studies concerning DE are rather rare. This paper surveys the theoretical results obtained so far for DE. A discussion of genetic operators characteristic of DE is coupled with an overview of the population diversity and dynamics models. A comprehensive view on the current-day understanding of the underlying mechanisms of DE is complemented by a list of promising research directions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
