Abstract
In this paper, a greedy Genetic Algorithm for continuous variables electromagnetic optimization problems is presented, The presented algorithm is characterized by the use of a nonlinear simplex method as a principal optimizator, and of a greedy genetic algorithm to explore the search space, realizing a balance between diversity and a bias toward fitter individuals. The resulting algorithm merges the efficiency typical of calculus-based search with the robustness typical of random methods, A detailed comparison of performances obtained implementing several strategies is eventually presented, using an electromagnetic design test problem.I metadati presenti in IRIS UNICA sono rilasciati con licenza Creative Commons CC0 1.0 Universal, mentre i file delle pubblicazioni sono protetti da diritto d'autore, salvo diversa indicazione.
