유전자 알고리즘은 문제 크기가 커짐에 따라 해집합이 폭발적으로 늘어나 최적해를 찾기 힘든 최적화 문제에 주로 적용되는 알고리즘으로, 최근에는 지리정보시스템(GIS)의 경로 최적화 문제, 게임에서의 길찾기, 인공지능에 많이 적용되고 있다. 마이크로 유전자 알고리즘은 일반 유전자 알고리즘에 비해 작은 크기의 모집단을 사용함으로써 알고리즘의 효율을 높일 수 있는 장점이 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 무향 Rural Postman Problem 해법으로 마이크로 유전자 알고리즘의 적용 방법을 제안한다.

다목적 최적화 문제의 목표는 다양한 파레토 최적해(Pareto Optimal Solution)을 찾는데 있으며, 마이크로-유전자 알고리즘(Micro-Genetic Algorithm)은 단순 유전자 알고리즘(Simple Genetic Algorithm)에 비해 소수의 유전자들만을 선별하여 진화시키는 방식으로 효율성을 극대화시킨다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 목적을 동시에 최적화하는 다목적 멀티캐스트 라우팅 문제를 해결하기 위해서 다목적 유전자 알고리즘과 마이크로-유전자 알고리즘을 결합한 다목적 마이크로-유전자 알고리즘을 적용하였다.

In this paper, a parallel micro genetic algorithm was utilized in the optimal design of composite structures instead of a conventional genetic algorithm(SGA). Micro genetic algorithm searches the optimal design variables with only 5 individuals. The diversities from the nominal convergence and the re-initialization processes make micro genetic algorithm to find out the optimums with such a small population size. Two different composite structure optimization problems were proposed to confirm the efficiency of micro genetic algorithm compared with SGA. The results showed that micro genetic algorithm can get the solutions of the same level of SGA while reducing the calculation costs up to 70% of SGA. The composite laminated structure optimization under the load uncertainty was conducted using micro genetic algorithm. The result revealed that the design variables regarding the load uncertainty are less sensitive to load variation than that of fixed applied load. From the above-mentioned results, we confirmed micro genetic algorithm as a optimization method of composite structures is efficient.

In this study, a micro-genetic algorithm was utilized for the optimal design of filament wound composite cylinders subjected to hydrostatic pressure for underwater vehicle application. The objective of the optimization was to maximize the design allowable load considering the buckling and static failure loads. A commercial finite element program, MSC.NASTRAN, was used for buckling and failure analysis. An open-source micro genetic algorithm by Carroll was modified for the optimization. The design variables are the helical winding angle and hoop layer thickness. The results of examples show that the micro genetic algorithm can be successfully applied to the optimization of filament wound cylinders with various geometries and gives better efficiency than general genetic algorithms.

그래프 분할 문제는 각각의 가중치가 주어진 에지와 노드를 정해진 목적에 맞게 몇 개의 그룹으로 분할하는 문제이다. 이 문제는 휴리스틱 방법으로 해결되어져 왔으나, NP-hard 문제로 인한 지역 최적해에 빠지기 쉬운 단점을 갖는다. 유전자 알고리즘이 해결 방법으로 제시되고 있는 가운데 단순 유전자 알고리즘에서 초기의 모집단 메모리(population memory)를 이용하여 적은 크기의 모집단을 생성하고 외부메모리에 최적해들을 저장하고 있어 GA의 효율성을 높이며, 다수의 지역 최적해에 빠지지 않게 하며 수렴 속도를 향상시키는 마이크로 유전자 알고리즘을 적용한다. ${\mu}$-GA를 통해 본 논문에서는 클러스터들의 가중치를 비교적 동일하게 하는 GPP를 해결하고자 한다.

SGA(Single Genetic Algorithm) is a heuristic global optimization method based on the natural characteristics and uses many populations and stochastic rules. Therefore SGA needs many function evaluations and takes much time for convergence. In order to solve the demerits of SGA, ${\mu}GA$(Micro-Genetic Algorithm) has recently been developed. In this study, ${\mu}GA$ which have small populations and fast convergence rate, was applied to structural optimization with discrete or integer variables such as 3, 10 and 25 bar trusses. The optimized results of ${\mu}GA$ were compared with those of SGA. Solutions of ${\mu}GA$ for structural optimization were very similar or superior to those of SGA, and faster convergence rate was obtained. From the results of examples, it is found that ${\mu}GA$ is a suitable and very efficient optimization algorithm for structural design.

In this study, direct-search based optimization methods are applied for blade shape optimization of wind turbines and the optimization performances of several methods including conventional genetic algorithm, micro genetic algorithm and pattern search method are compared to propose a more efficient method. For this purpose, the currently available version of HARP_Opt (Horizontal Axis Rotor Performance Optimizer) code is enhanced to rationally evaluate the annual energy production value according to control strategies and to optimize the blade shape using pattern search method as well as genetic algorithm. The enhanced HARP_Opt code is applied to obtain the optimal turbine blade shape for 1MW class wind turbines. The results from pattern search method are compared with the results from conventional genetic algorithm and also micro genetic algorithm and it is found that the pattern search method has a better performance in achieving higher annual energy production and consistent optimal shapes and the micro genetic algorithm is better for reducing the calculation time.

In this paper, the optimal design of trusses using advanced analysis and genetic algorithm is performed. An advanced analysis takes into account geometric nonlinearity and material nonlinearity. The micro genetic algorithm is used as optimization technique. The weight of structures is treated as the objective function. The constraint functions are defined by load-carrying capacities and displacement requirement. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by comparing the results of the proposed method with those of other method.
