Chua's Circuit Topology Evolution Using Genetic Algorithm

Abstract

In this paper, a novel approach of using genetic algorithm towards the realization of Chua's circuit is presented. The paper demonstrates the use of genetic algorithm to evolve Chua's circuit from a set of given passive and active components. More than a dozen of the evolved designs are demonstrated to work satisfactorily in simulation. The evolved designs are found to be competitive in a human environment and are also demonstrated to work in a laboratory set up.
