Abstract

Generally, as for Genetic Algorithms (GAs), it is not always optimal search efficiency, because genetic parameters (crossover rate, mutation rate and so on) are fixed. For this problem, we have already proposed Fuzzy Adaptive Search Method for GA (FASGA) that is able to tune the genetic parameters according to the search stage by the fuzzy reasoning. On the other hand, in order to improve the solution quality of GA, Parallel Genetic Algorithm (PGA) based on the local evolution in plural sub-populations (islands) and the migration of individuals between islands has been researched.In this research, Fuzzy Adaptive Search method for Parallel GA (FASPGA) combined FASGA with PGA is proposed. Moreover as the improvement method for FASPGA, Diversity Measure based Fuzzy Adaptive Search method for Parallel GA (DM-FASPGA) is also proposed. Computer simulation was carried out to confirm the efficiency of the proposed method and the simulation results are also reported in this paper.
