Differential Evolution (DE) is an effective optimization method available for solving global continuous optimization problems. This letter develops a new type of Differential Evolution, Down-hill Simplex Method Based Differential Evolution, which uses a local descent direction formed by Down-hill Simplex Method. The feasibility and advantage of the developed DE are demonstrated through some numerical simulations using two different typical global optimization test problems.
