This paper proposes the use of two algorithms based on the parallel differential evolution. The first algorithm proposes the use of endemic control parameters within a parallel differential evolution algorithm; the ...

This paper proposes the employment of multiple scale factor values within distributed differential evolution structures. Four different scale factor schemes are proposed, tested, compared and analyzed. Two schemes simply ...

This paper proposes a novel algorithm for large-scale optimization problems. The proposed algorithm, namely shuffle or update parallel differential evolution (SOUPDE) is a structured population algorithm characterized by ...

This article proposes a distributed differential evolution which employs a novel self-adaptive scheme, namely scale factor inheritance. In the proposed algorithm, the population is distributed over several sub-populations ...
