An Efficient Hybrid Optimization Approach Using Adaptive Elitist Differential Evolution and Spherical Quadratic Steepest Descent and Its Application for Clustering

In this paper, a hybrid approach that combines a population-based method, adaptive elitist differential evolution (aeDE), with a powerful gradient-based method, spherical quadratic steepest descent (SQSD), is proposed and then applied for clustering analysis. This combination not only helps inherit...
