On the Exploration and Exploitation Capabilities of Adaptive Differential Evolution: A Case Study Using JADE, L-SHADE, and jDElscop
Differential Evolution (DE) is one of the most successful population-based optimization algorithms, and numerous adaptive variants, such as JADE, L-SHADE, and jDElscop, have been proposed to improve its search performance. Although these methods consistently outperform classical DE variants, whether they genuinely impr...
