An Angle-Coding Chromosome Quantum Genetic Algorithm
Shen Zhen-kang
Abstract
In order to decrease the storage quantity and increase the search efficiency,a new quantum genetic algorithm called AC-QGA is proposed,in which the chromosome is encoded by the angle in based on the qubit's polar coordinate representation in the two-dimensional Hilbert space.Thus,the representation of the gene-bit is changed from the complex number pair to a real number,and the storage quantity is decreased greatly.Meanwhile,the updating process of the chromosome and the mutation process of the gene-bit are simplified from the matrix multiplied by the vector to the angle addition or subtraction.The process of observing the chromosome is changed from probability comparison to angle comparison.The above-mentioned measures make the storage quality and the search efficiency of AC-QGA be increased greatly.The experiments show AC-QGA is very effective.
