CHAOS SYNTHESIS BY MEANS OF EVOLUTIONARY ALGORITHMS

This paper introduces the notion of chaos synthesis by means of evolutionary algorithms and develops a new method for chaotic systems synthesis. This method is similar to genetic programming and grammatical evolution and is being applied along with three evolutionary algorithms: differential evolution, self-organizing migration and genetic algorithm. The aim of this investigation is to synthesize new and "simple" chaotic systems based on some elements contained in a prechosen existing chaotic system and a properly defined cost function. The investigation consists of eleven case studies: the aforementioned three evolutionary algorithms in eleven versions. For all algorithms, 100 simulations of chaos synthesis were repeated and then averaged to guarantee the reliability and robustness of the proposed method. The most significant results were carefully selected, visualized and commented in this report.
