  • Abstract
    We proposed an improved genetic algorithm (GA) based on floating-point encoding, and greatly enhanced its local adjustment capability using linear crossover operator, dynamic mutation operator, and the substitution and retention strategies used at different population evolutionary stages. Numerical simulation further validated the effectiveness of the improved GA.
