Abstract

This paper presents a new way of optimization based on genetic operators. It has been known that the canonical genetic algorithm (CGA) does not guarantee convergence to the global optimum and also has the problem of premature saturation (or convergence). In this sense, this paper suggests a new way of searching based on genetic operators in which convergence to the global optimum is guaranteed and efficiency in searching is considered. The basic scheme of the suggested approach is to apply the genetic operators in the case of searching for solutions and the random perturbation in the case of premature saturation. To show the effectiveness of our approach, simulation for vector quantization has been performed.
