Effect of Population Structures on Quantum-Inspired Evolutionary Algorithm by Nija Mani, Gursaran Srivastava, A. K. Sinha, Ashish Mani

“…The improvement attained by versatile QEA over QEA indicates the impact of population structure on the performance of QEA and motivates further investigation into employing fine-grained model. The QEA with fine-grained population model (FQEA) is similar to QEA with the exception that every individual is located in a unique position on a two-dimensional toroidal grid and has four neighbors amongst which it selects its attractor. …”
