Genetic Algorithms (GAs), one of the most frequently used methods in optimization problems, stochastically select the appropriate individuals in order to find the optimum point that is searched. By choosing the most appropriate individuals in each iteration, it aims to find the optimum or near optimum point. Hence, it is significantly important to have a decent selection method in order to operate GAs effectively. The goal of this paper is to improve Outlander algorithm which was already proposed. The performance of the improvised Outlander algorithm is compared with previously proposed selection methods; Aggressive, Non-Aggressive selection methods, and the most commonly used standard selection methods; Roulette Wheel, Linear Ranking and Tournament, as well as the Outlander algorithm. It is observed that the improved algorithm has pronounced advantages over the compared algorithms.
