Differential Evolution: Fundamentals and Applications

What Is Differential Evolution

In the field of evolutionary computation, differential evolution, also known as DE, is a method that optimizes a problem by iteratively trying to improve a candidate solution with relation to a specific measure of quality. DE is an abbreviation for the term "differential evolution." These kinds of procedures are typically referred to as metaheuristics since they make very few or no assumptions about the issue that is being addressed and are able to search very huge spaces of potential solutions. However, metaheuristics like as DE do not guarantee that the best solution will ever be discovered.
