A novel artificial fish swarm algorithm,Cloud model-based Artificial Fish Swarm Algorithm(CAFSA) is proposed,CAFSA which is used for optimizing complex nonlinear function is based on both the idea of AFSA and the properties of randomness and stable tendency of a normal cloud model.Finally,the numerical experiment results show that this method not only can effectively locate the global optimum,but also have a rather high convergence speed.It is believed that CAFSA will become a promising candidate of evolutionary algorithms.
