Abstract

Differential evolution (DE) is an algorithm highly effective in solving problems with continuous variables while not applicable to problems with discrete variables. To overcome this disadvantage an elite-guiding binary differential evolution (EGBDE) is proposed. Inspired by the mutation with GA which could be dominated by the genes of the fittest chromosomes, a similar process is added to replace the original mutation of DE. Through simulations of test functions and Knapsack Problem (KP) EGBDE is proved to be both feasible and efficient in optimizations of problems with continuous and discrete variables.
