Differential Evolution
Abstract
Differential evolution (DE) is a vector-based metaheuristic algorithm that has good convergence properties. There are many DE variants, and they have been applied in a wide range of disciplines. This chapter provides a brief introduction to the basic differential evolution, its main implementation details, and its variants. Fundamental convergence properties in terms of the population variance are also discussed.
