Differential Evolution without the Scale Factor and the Crossover Probability by Xiaowei Zhang

“…The proposed algorithm looks upon each individual as a charged particle to decide on the shift of the individual in the direction of the difference based on the attraction-repulsion mechanism in Coulomb’s Law. Moreover, Taguchi’s parameter design method with the two-level orthogonal array is merged into the crossover operation in order to obtain better individuals in the next generation by means of better combination of factor levels. …”
