摘要
In order to overcome the problems of traditional evolution algorithms in designing digital logic circuits, such as slow evolution speed and premature convergence, a memetic algorithm (MA) for evolving digital circuits is presented based on CGP encoding. It adopts genetic algorithm as global search method. A local search strategy based on gate type is proposed. The search ability of the proposed method is tested by evolving one-bit full adder. Experimental results show that it is efficient in solving the problems of hardware evolution and has the ability of fast global and local convergence.
