Résumé :

In dynamically changing environments, the performance of a standard evolutionary algorithm deteriorates. This is due to the fact that the population, which is considered to contain the history of the evolutionary process, does not contain enough information to allow the algorithm to react adequately to changes in the fitness landscape. There- fore, we added a simple, global case-based memory to the process to keep track of interesting historical events. Through the introduction of this memory and a storing and replacement scheme we were able to improve the reaction capabilities of an evolutionary algorithm with a periodically changing fitness function.
