A Novel Mutation Strategy to Accelerate Evolutionary Design of Circuits

摘要：

Evolvable Hardware(EHW)is a novel technique to design circuits automatically.One of the main difficulties of EHW applying real-world applications is its Scalability.This paper focuses on decreasing computation complexity to improve the scalability of combinational logic circuit evolutionary design and proposes a novel mutation strategy-SLP-Mutation(Short Link Priority Mutation).The Mutation operator encourages short link and multi-layer,which meets the structure characteristic of relatively complex circuit.Evolution strategy introducing SLP-Mutation(SLP-Mutation ES)reduces search space of the evolution design and the computation complexity.Experimental results demonstrate the validity of SLP-Mutation ES.
