An improved knowledge evolution algorithm and its application to chemical process dynamic optimization
The intelligent optimization algorithms have been widely used in solving dynamic optimization problems for their ability to converge to global optimum at a specific probability without being trapped in local optimums. However
the practical industrial application fields of such random mechanism-based algorithms are restricted due to their demerits
such as slow convergence and low searching efficiency.Therefore
an improved knowledge-based evolutionary algorithm structure was presented for improving the efficiency of intelligent optimization algorithms which were used to solve dynamic optimization problems. The structure included a discretization method of candidate solutions in time and control domains
the evolution of the repository
population evolution steered by knowledge. When applied to dynamic optimization problems of four typical chemical processes
such as batch reactor
which owned distinguishing control feature
this algorithm demonstrated its competitive optimal searching ability
meanwhile verifying its satisfying convergence efficiency by using a smaller scale of population guided by knowledge and consuming less computational cost.
