SCJADE: Yet Another State-of-the-Art Differential Evolution Algorithm

Differential evolution algorithms have become one of the most competitive evolutionary algorithms, among which a chaotic differential evolution (CJADE) is a recently proposed state-of-the-art variant. But CJADE still suffers from the premature convergence problem. This paper further improves CJADE by innovatively incorporating a success-intensity-based roulette wheel selection method into it. The resultant algorithm called SCJADE shows its superiority over its peer in terms of solution quality and convergence speed on IEEE CEC2017 optimization test suit.
