When evolutionary algorithms are used for solving numerical constrained optimization problems, how to deal with the relationship between feasible and infeasible individuals can dir...
This paper presents an efficient technique of designing twodimensional IIR digital filters using a new algorithm involving the tightly coupled synergism of particle swarm optimiza...
Constrained continuous optimization is still an interesting field of research. Many heuristics have been proposed in the last decade. Most of them are based on penalty functions....
