Niching evolutionary algorithms for multimodal and dynamic optimization

Many optimization functions have complex landscapes with multiple global or local optima. In order to solve such problems, niching evolutionary algorithms were introduced. The “niching” concept in evolutionary algorithms was brought from the ecological “niches”. It describes the roles that different...
