摘要: Recently, there has been a growing interest in developing evolutionary algorithms based on probabilistic modeling. In this scheme, the offspring population is generated according to estimated probability density model of parents instead using recombination and mutation operators. paper, we propose an algorithm marginal histogram parent continuous domain. We two types models: fixed-width (FWH) fixed-height (FHH). The results showed that both models worked fairly well test functions with no or weak interactions among variables. Especially, FHH could find global optimum very high accuracy effectively good scale-up problem size.
