Zihang Meng, Hai-Bin Shen, Ting Zhao · 2016
In order to overcome prematurity and local optimum of the artificial bee colony algorithm and enhance the global searching ability, this paper proposes a hybrid artificial bee colony algorithm (CS-ABC) based on Cuckoo search strategy. In the update mechanism, the Cuckoo search strategy is used to conduct the population replacement. Cuckoo search strategy possesses advantages such as rapid global convergence and ability of escaping from local optimum. Through the experiment using classical Benchmark functions and the comparison with other algorithms, the paper shows that the proposed algorithm has excellent global search ability and can avoid prematurity.
