Modified Artificial Bee Colony Algorithms for Numerical Optimization
Dongli Zhang, Xinping Guan, Yinggan Tang, Yong Tang · 2011
The artificial bee colony algorithm is a swarm intelligence optimization algorithm inspired by the intelligent foraging behavior of honeybees. In this paper, modified ABC algorithms are proposed for numerical optimization. We have compared the performance of our ABC approach against the basic ABC algorithm, results show that the proposed methods have somewhat improved the convergence rate and global searching capability in some optimization problems.
