Abstract EN
Differential evolution (DE) is a population-based stochastic search algorithm which has shown a good performance in solving many benchmarks and real-world optimization problems.
Individuals in the standard DE, and most of its modifications, exhibit the same search characteristics because of the use of the same DE scheme.
This paper proposes a simple and effective heterogeneous DE (HDE) to balance exploration and exploitation.
In HDE, individuals are allowed to follow different search behaviors randomly selected from a DE scheme pool.
Experiments are conducted on a comprehensive set of benchmark functions, including classical problems and shifted large-scale problems.
The results show that heterogeneous DE achieves promising performance on a majority of the test problems.
