Strategies for increasing the efficiency of a genetic algorithm for the structural optimization of nanoalloy clusters

An improved genetic algorithm (GA) is described that has been developed to increase the efficiency of finding the global minimum energy isomers for nanoalloy clusters. The GA is optimized for the example Pt12Pd12, with specific investigation of: the effect of biasing the initial population by seedin...
