摘要:Abstract —Genetic algorithm (GA) is a powerful method to solve constrained optimization problems (COPs). In this paper, a new fitness function based hybrid genetic optimization algorithm (NFFHGA) for COPs is proposed, in which a new crossover operator based on Union Design is presented, and inspired by the smooth function technique, a new fitness function is designed to automatically search for potential solutions. Furthermore, in order to make the fitness function work well, a special technique which keeps a certain number of feasible solutions is also used. Experiments on 6 benchmark problems are performed and the compared results with the best known solutions reported in literature show that NFFHGA can not only quickly converge to the optimal or near-optimal solutions, but also have a high performance.
