Chaotic sequences to improve the performance of evolutionary algorithms

Caponetto, R., Fortuna, L., Fazzino, S., Xibilia, M.G.·2003·IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation

Abstract

This paper proposes an experimental analysis on the convergence of evolutionary algorithms (EAs). The effect of introducing chaotic sequences instead of random ones during all the phases of the evolution process is investigated. The approach is based on the substitution of the random number generator (RNG) with chaotic sequences. Several numerical examples are reported in order to compare the performance of the EA using random and chaotic generators as regards to both the results and the convergence speed. The results obtained show that some chaotic sequences are always able to increase the value of some measured algorithm-performance indexes with respect to random sequences. Moreover, it is shown that EAs can be extremely sensitive to different RNGs. Some t-tests were performed to confirm the improvements introduced by the proposed strategy.

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.
