Abstract

This research presents the development of a universal genetic optimizer (UGO) aimed at solving optimization problems across a wide range of test functions, focusing on achieving reliable global extrema for both theoretical and practical applications. The study utilizes a genetic algorithm (GA) enhanced with neural network-based approaches, implementing key genetic operators such as crossover, mutation, and elitism. The algorithm was tested on benchmark functions including Rosenbrock, De Jong, and Griewank, among others, with statistical analysis identifying optimal parameter settings. The results demonstrate superior performance compared to traditional tools like Excel Solver and GAMS, particularly when elitism is included. The proposed framework highlights the adaptability of evolutionary computation when combined with machine learning techniques. Moreover, it opens perspectives for applying UGO in real-world optimization challenges such as logistics, energy systems, and engineering design.
