Differential evolution with ensemble of constraint handling techniques for solving CEC 2010 benchmark problems
Several constraint handling techniques have been proposed to be used with the evolutionary algorithms (EAs). According to the no free lunch theorem, it is impossible for a single constraint handling technique to outperform all other techniques on every problem. In other words, depending on several factors such as the ratio between feasible search space and the whole search space, multi-modality of the problem, the chosen EA and global exploration/local exploitation stages of the search process, different constraint handling techniques can be effective on different problems and during different stages of the search process. Motivated by these observations, we proposed an ensemble of constraint handling techniques (ECHT) to solve constrained real-parameter optimization problems. In ECHT, each constraint handling method has its own population and every function call is used effectively. Being a general concept, the ECHT can be realized with any existing EA. In this paper, we present ECHT ...
