Sequential Optimization: Genetic Algorithm

A number of global optimization methods were discussed in Chap. 3. In this chapter we introduce one specific optimization method that is combined with forward solver and designed for microwave tomography. Two types of genetic algorithms, namely binary-coded and real-coded, are reviewed and then are used in a two-dimensional setup for imaging.
