“…In the recent years, global optimization techniques such as evolutionary algorithm (Nangsue et al, 1999), genetic algorithm (Bishop and Richards, 1990;Alonge et al, 1998;Pillay et al, 1997;Rahimpour et al, 2007;Huang et al, 2001;Nollan et al, 1994;Orlowska Kowalska et al, 2006), adaptive GA (Abdelhadi et al, 2004) and differential evolution (Ursem and Vadstrup, 2003) have been proposed to solve the parameter estimation problems.…”
