  • Abstract
    This paper presents an improved genetic algorithm with variable population-size (VPGA) inspired by the natural features of the variable size of the population. Based on the VPGA and the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithms, this paper also proposes a novel hybrid approach called PSO-GA based hybrid evolutionary algorithm (PGBHEA). Simulations show that both VPGA and PGBHEA are effective for the optimization problem.
