Optimal Design Using Clonal Selection Algorithm

In this paper, the Clonal Selection Algorithm (CSA) is employed by the natural immune system to define the basic features of an immune response to an antigenic stimulus. This paper synthesizes the advantages of clonal selection algorithm and proposed optimal design problem using clonal selection algorithm which is a basis of the immune system. CSA, the essence of immune algorithm, is effective to solve optimal problem. The clonal selection algorithm is highly parallel and presents a fine tractability in terms of computational cost. Like the genetic algorithm, clonal selection algorithm is a tool for optimum solution. Clonal selection algorithm and genetic algorithm are used to reach the optimization performances for two numerical function. Then those results are compared each other. These proposed algorithms are shown to be an evolutionary strategy capable of solving optimal design problem.
