Abstract :
A Cultural Algorithm (CA) rooting from simulation of evolution of human being society, provides a new computable framework of Evolution Algorithms. Concept of CA is more easily understood and more accuracy to reflect evolution process of society than some other optimization algorithms. CA has been successfully applied to much engineering. Firstly, this paper depicts natural explanation about CA. Secondly, introduces its basic theory. At last, the paper also tests it using 9 examples with nonlinear constrained optimization. The results show that the algorithm is effective.
