Abstract
Notice of Retraction
After careful and considered review of the content of this paper by a duly constituted expert committee, this paper has been found to be in violation of IEEE´s Publication Principles.
We hereby retract the content of this paper. Reasonable effort should be made to remove all past references to this paper.
The presenting author of this paper has the option to appeal this decision by contacting TPII@ieee.org.
Population diversity is the precondition of population evolution. Premature convergence is a problem in genetic algorithm. It is seriously influenced by the distribution properties of initial population. So an adaptive genetic algorithm based on diversity is proposed in this paper. It uses the max-min distance means and makes various individuals maintain some certain Hamming distance to produce good population distribution. Simultaneously the genetic operators are adaptively determined according to the population diversity and individual fitness. The diversity of population can be effectively maintained and a global optimal solution can be quickly obtained using the proposed method. Finally, four representative test functions are chosen to test the improved adaptive genetic algorithm´s capability. The simulation and comparison results show the validity of this algorithm.
