An investigation on the chaos driven Differential Evolution: An initial study

Abstract

This paper outlines the initial investigations on the concept of a chaos driven Differential Evolution. The focus of this paper is the embedding of chaotic systems in the form of chaos number generator for Differential Evolution. The chaotic systems of interest are the discrete dissipative systems. Three chaotic systems were selected as possible chaos number generators for Differential Evolution. Repeated simulations were performed on benchmark function sets. Finally, the obtained results are compared with canonical Differential Evolution.
