A New Adaptive Differential Evolution Algorithms

Abstract

In this paper, we describe a New Adaptive Differential Evolution algorithm (NADE) based on adaptive mutation operator, crossover operator and new mutation strategy. It is mainly aimed at the existence of individual aggregation and the reduction of population diversity in the calculation process of Differential Evolution algorithm (DE), which makes the algorithm easy to get early. The problems of ripeness, slow convergence speed and low convergence accuracy are improved. The improved differential evolution algorithm is tested by five commonly used test functions, and the test results are compared with the other three algorithms. The results show that the proposed algorithm performs better in convergence speed, convergence precision and global convergence ability.
