Hybrid Optimisation Method Using PGA and SQP Algorithm
2007
2007 IEEE Symposium on Foundations of Computational Intelligence
This paper investigates the hybridisation of two very different optimisation methods, namely the Parallel Genetic Algorithm (PGA) and Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP) Algorithm. ...
