This survey presents a comprehensive analysis of the Improved Quantum Genetic Algorithm (IQGA), an interesting way of applying quantum computing to genetic algorithms (GAs). The study begins with an introduction to the several variants of Quantum Genetic Algorithm (QGA), which are widely used in different applications of GAs. The article introduces the IQGA as a quantum version of the classical GA, detailing how it leverages quantum parallelism and superposition to reduce the time complexity of the genetic operations, and highlighting its crucial role in quantum algorithms. The analysis also addresses the mathematical foundations of the IQGA, and the key advantages and challenges associated with its use in several applications. Finally, it concludes with an exploration of the current and potential applications of IQGA and common characteristics of several implementations of IQGAs. Keywords: QGA, IQGA, GA.

Genetic Algorithms and Quantum Computation

Gilson Antonio Giraldi, Renato Portugal, Ricardo N. Thess

Recently, researchers have applied genetic algorithms (GAs) to address some problems in quantum computation. Also, there has been some works in the designing of genetic algorithms based on quantum theoretical concepts and techniques. The so called Quantum Evolutionary Programming has two major sub-areas: Quantum Inspired Genetic Algorithms (QIGAs) and Quantum Genetic Algorithms (QGAs). The former adopts qubit chromosomes as representations and employs quantum gates for the search of the best solution. The later tries to solve a key question in this field: what GAs will look like as an implementation on quantum hardware? As we shall see, there is not a complete answer for this question. An important point for QGAs is to build a quantum algorithm that takes advantage of both the GA and quantum computing parallelism as well as true randomness provided by quantum computers. In the first part of this paper we present a survey of the main works in GAs plus quantum computing including also our works in this area. Henceforth, we review some basic concepts in quantum computation and GAs and emphasize their inherent parallelism. Next, we review the application of GAs for learning quantum operators and circuit design. Then, quantum evolutionary programming is considered. Finally, we present our current research in this field and some perspectives.

Improvement of Quantum Genetic Algorithm and Its Application

Ge ZHANG

An improved quantum genetic algorithm(IQGA) was proposed to overcome the shortcoming of the quantum genetic algorithm(QGA),i.e. local optimization, when it is used for the optimization of continuous functions with many extreme values. In IQGA, the strategies of updating quantum gate using the best solution obtained and population catastrophe were adopted. The test results for two typical functions show that the convergence speed of IQGA is faster than that of QGA, and IQGA can converge in a global solution space, overcoming the shortcoming of QGA. The application results indicate that IQGA is better than QGA and other genetic algorithms.
