Abstract

Years after being firstly introduced by Fraser and remodeled for modern application by Bremermann, genetic algorithm (GA) has a significant progression to solve many kinds of optimization problems. GA also thrives into many variations of models and approaches. Multi-population or island model GA (IMGA) is one of the commonly used GA models. IMGA is a multi-population GA model objected to getting a better result (aimed to get global optimum) by intrinsically preserve its diversity. Localization strategy of IMGA is a new approach which sees an island as a single living environment for its individuals. An island’s characteristic must be different compared to other islands. Operator parameter configuration or even its core engine (algorithm) represents the nature of an island. These differences will incline into different evolution tracks which can be its speed or pattern. Localization strategy for IMGA uses three kinds of single GA core: standard GA, pseudo GA, and informed GA. Localization strategy implements migration protocol and the bias value to control the movement. The experiment results showed that localization strategy for IMGA succeeds to solve 3-SAT with an excellent performance. This brand new approach is also proven to have a high consistency and durability.
