In a multimodal optimization task, the main purpose is to find multiple optimal solutions (global and local), so that the user can have a better knowledge about different optima...
Nadir point plays an important role in multi-objective optimization because of its importance in estimating the range of objective values corresponding to desired Pareto-optimal s...
Recent studies [13, 18] have shown that clearing schemes are efficient multi-modal optimization methods. They efficiently reduce genetic drift which is the direct reason for prema...
In an evolutionary algorithm, the population has a very important role as its size has direct implications regarding solution quality, speed, and reliability. Theoretical studies ...
This paper presents an improved version of a simple evolution strategy (SES) to solve global nonlinear optimization problems. As its previous version, the approach does not require...
