Quantum genetic algorithm with application in fuzzy controller parameter optimization
Yuan Li-ying
Abstract
A quantum genetic algorithm based on real number encoding and gradient of fitness function is proposed in this paper.Chromosomes comprised of quantum bits are updated by quantum rotating gates,and are mutated by quantum non-gate.A convenient method to choose the direction of rotation angle of quantum rotation gate is proposed.The computation formula of the rotation angle value is constructed by the gradients of fitness function.In this method,two probability amplitude of each quantum bit are regarded as two coordinate genes;each chromosome contains two chains of genes;and each chain of genes represents an optimization result.This method can accelerate convergence process and increase successful probability with the same number of chromosomes.Its application to fuzzy controller parameters optimization illustrates that the approach is superior to common quantum genetic algorithm in searching ability.
