States based evolutionary algorithm

Description

Choosing the suitable representation, the operators and the values of the parameters of an evolutionary algorithm is one of the main problems to design an efficient algorithm for one particular optimization problem. This additional information to the evolutionary algorithm generally is called the algorithm parameter, or parameter. This work introduces a new evolutionary algorithm, States based Evolutionary Algorithm which is able to combine different evolutionary algorithms with different parameters included different representations in order to control the parameters and to take the advantage of each possible evolution algorithm during the optimization process. This paper gives first experimental arguments of the efficiency of the States based EA.
