A Hybrid Simplex Search and Bio-Inspired Algorithm for Faster Convergence
Massudi Mahmuddin, Yuhanis Yusof · 2011
The Bees Algorithm is one of the latest bio-inspired optimisation algorithms. It suffers of slow convergence due to repetitive iteration of the algorithm. In this paper, a hybrid technique is proposed to overcome this issue. A combination of the Nelder-Mead simplex approach is used to exploit the faster convergence of the simplex approach on the Bees Algorithm. Evaluation of effectiveness of the approach is tested on function optimisation problem. The result shows that proposed approach perform faster compare to the original Bees Algorithm technique.
