Abstract

Microgenetic Algorithm(MGA) is Genetic Algorithm(GA) using a very small population size (population size < 20). The weighted graph matching problem (WGMP) receives tremendous attention in the field of pattern recognition recently. In this paper, a hybrid MGA with larger population is proposed to solved the weighted graph matching problem. In our hybrid microgenetic algorithm, many modules, such as local search algorithm, biased initial population, a modified selection scheme, and a refining procedure, are embedded to improve the performance of the algorithm. Experimental results show that our method outperforms a well-known method, the Symmetric Polynomial Transform (SPT), on most instances of the weighted graph matching problems.
