Nowadays for function optimization, various optimization algorithms are used. Because of the importance of accuracy and the time to reach to convergence, a new idea is presented in improvement of this algorithm. In this paper this algorithm is called with EBFA (Extended Bacterial foraging algorithm). Simulation results show that the speed of convergence and accuracy of this algorithm is better than the common BFA.
