Abstract :
The Genetic Algorithm (GA) is an optimization technique, applying the nature philosophy to searching for the best fit solution. We apply the GA to treat inverse scattering problems. Two examples are presented: the detection of a buried circular conducting cylinder and the inversion of a dielectric profile. The examples show the convergence and robustness
