Performance of informative differential evolution algorithm with self adaptive re-clustering technique on the problems of electromagnetism - The linear array antenna synthesis

Abstract

In this paper we are going to investigate the properties of Informative Differential Evolution with Self Adaptive Re-clustering technique (IDE-SR) algorithm on the problems of electromagnetic domain. Problems of electromagnetism domain generally exhibit multimodal characteristic as well as the high dimensionality and non-smooth attributes. IDE-SR is a modified Differential Evolution (DE) to overcome the problems of multimodality and complexity of the problem under consideration. In this paper we describe the salient features of IDE-SR and compare the result with other state-of-art algorithms. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.
