A sequential niche technique for multimodal function optimization

TL;DR: An algorithm based on a traditional genetic algorithm that involves iterating the GA but uses knowledge gained during one iteration to avoid re-searching, on subsequent iterations, regions of problem space where solutions have already been found.
