NEW MIGRATION SCHEME FOR PARALLEL DIFFERENTIAL EVOLUTION

*SUMMARY Motivation: Modern molecular biology has massive amounts of quantitative data already at its disposal. The crucially important problem for getting closer insights into mechanisms of development is to reduce the complexity of finding the parameters of mathematical models by fitting to experimental data. Parallel Differential Evolution is the modern optimization technique that posses natural parallelization. Results: The new migration scheme for Parallel Differential Evolution has been developed that showed high speed of convergence on the test problem. The dependency of the accuracy of the final result on the period of communication between branches was analyzed. Availability: available on request from the authors.
