Abstract

The practical application of Genetic Algorithms to the solution of engineering problems is rapidly becoming an established approach in the fields of control and signal processing. This book provides comprehensive coverage of the techniques involved, describing the intrinsic characteristics, advantages and constraints of generic algorithms, as well as discussing genetic operations such as crossover, mutation and reinsertion. In addition, the principle of multiobjective optimization and computing parallelism are discussed. These features are fully illustrated by real-world applications. also described is a newly proposed and unique hierarchical genetic algorithm designed to address the problems in determining system topology.
