This paper introduces the Hybrid Differential Evolution (HDE) algorithm as a novel approach for optimizing Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) node deployment, surpassing conventional Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) methods. By amalgamating Differential Evolution (DE) with local search strategies, HDE achieves superior coverage, enhanced connectivity, and heightened energy efficiency. This hybrid methodology not only addresses the limitations of individual optimization techniques but also exhibits robustness and adaptability in managing intricate and large-scale WSN deployment scenarios. Consequently, HDE emerges as a potent optimization tool capable of efficiently optimizing sensor node placements to meet the diverse requirements of contemporary WSN applications.
