An artificial immune network for multimodal optimisation
L.N de Castro and J Timmis
In 2002 Congress on Evolutionary Computation. Part of the 2002 IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence., pages 182-196, Honolulu, Hawaii, USA, May 2002. IEEE.Abstract
This paper presents the adaptation of an immune network model, originally proposed to perform information compression and data clustering, to solve multimodal function optimization problems. The algorithm is described, theoretically and empirically compared with similar approaches from the literature. The main features of the algorithm are automatic determination of the population size, combination of local with global search (exploitation plus exploration of the fitness landscape), defined convergence criterion, and capability of maintaining stable local optima solutions.
