Self-learning differential evolution algorithm for dynamic polycentric problems by Xing-bao LIU, Jian-ping YIN, Chun-hua HU, Rong-yuan CHEN

“…A novel self-learning differential evolution algorithm is proposed to solve dynamical multi-center optimization problems.The approach of re-evaluating some specific individuals is used to monitor environmental changes.The proposed self-learning operator guides the evolutionary group to a new environment,meanwhile maintains the stable topology structure of group to maintain the current evolutionary trend.A neighborhood search mechanism and a random immigrant mechanism are adapted to make a tradeoff between algorithmic convergence and population diversity.The experiment studies on a periodic dynamic function set suits are done,and the comparisons with peer algorithms show that the self-learning differential algorithm outperforms other algorithms in term of convergence and adaptability under dynamical environment.…”

Identification and Correction of Phase Unwrapping Errors in Multitemporal Small Baseline DInSAR Interferograms: A Three-Step Cascade Algorithm by Giovanni Onorato, Claudio De Luca, Francesco Casu, Michele Manunta, Muhammad Yasir, Pasquale Noli, Pasquale Striano, Riccardo Lanari

“…Once identified them, the third step consists in a guided search of the possible PhU corrections, for the examined pixels, by means of a genetic algorithm, which maximizes the LTC time series. To evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, we carry out a comparative analysis between the corrected and uncorrected results, obtained from simulated data relevant to different deformation regimes and a Sentinel-1 SAR dataset relevant to descending orbits over the Mt. …”
