Genetical Swarm Optimization: Self-Adaptive Hybrid Evolutionary Algorithm for Electromagnetics

TL;DR: A new effective optimization algorithm suitably developed for electromagnetic applications called genetical swarm optimization is presented and shows itself as a general purpose tool able to effectively adapt itself to different electromagnetic optimization problems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differentiated Meta-PSO Methods for Array Optimization

TL;DR: Few variations over the standard algorithm, referred to as differentiated meta-PSO, aimed to enhance the global search capability, and to improve the algorithm convergence, are introduced.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dispersion relation for bianisotropic materials and its symmetry properties

TL;DR: In this paper, the dispersion relation for an arbitrary general bianisotropic medium is derived in Cartesian coordinates, in a form well suited to imposing the boundary conditions when dealing with layered media with planar and parallel interfaces.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

PSO as an effective learning algorithm for neural network applications

TL;DR: An improved particle swarm optimization (PSO) is introduced as a new tool for training an artificial neural network (ANN) and the typical supervised feed-forward backpropagation algorithm and the classical genetic algorithm are chosen.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modified Compact Genetic Algorithm for Thinned Array Synthesis

TL;DR: The Modified compact Genetic Algorithm (M-cGA) is introduced and applied to the synthesis of thinned arrays and outperforms not only the cGA, but also the other optimization schemes previously applied to this kind of problem, both in terms of goodness of the solution and of computational cost.
