ABSTRACT
The performance of two selection mechanisms used in the most popular variant of differential evolution, known as DE/rand/1/bin, are com- pared in the solution of constrained numerical op- timization problems. Four performance measures proposed in the specialized literature are used to analyze the capabilities of each selection mech- anism to reach the feasible region of the search space, to find the vicinity of the feasible global op- timum and the computational cost (measured by the number of evaluations) required. Two para- meters of the differential evolution algorithm are varied to determine the most convenient values. A set of problems with different features is cho- sen to test both selection mechanisms and some findings are extracted from the results obtained.
Keywords: Constrained Numerical Optimiza- tion, Differential Evolution, Selection Mecha- nisms.
