Abstract:
In this paper, we proposed a Competitive QUasi-Affine TRansformation Evolutionary (C-QUATRE) algorithm. This algorithm is an advancement of a preciously proposed QUATRE algorithm. The QUATRE algorithm is arguably a very powerful stochastic optimization algorithm, and it will appear in CEC2016 conference proceedings with the paper title “QUasi-Affine TRansformation Evolutionary (QUATRE) Algorithm: A Parameter-reduced Differential Evolution Algorithm for Optimization Problem”. It conquers some weaknesses of Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm and it has excellent performance even on multi-modal optimization problem. Here in the paper, we advance a C-QUATRE algorithm which uses a pairwise competition mechanism to enhance the performance of the former proposed QUATRE algorithm. The C-QUATRE algorithm is verified both on CEC2013 test suite for real-parameter optimization and BBOB2009 framework for black-box optimization, and experiment results show that the pairwise competition mechanism is very useful for the enhancement of the QUATRE performance over all these benchmarks.
