Xiangyu Kong, Sanyang Liu, Zhen Wang · Journal of Engineering Science and Technology Review · 2014

An effective hybrid artificial bee colony algorithm is proposed in this paper for nonnegative linear least squares problems.To further improve the performance of algorithm, orthogonal initialization method is employed to generate the initial swarm.Furthermore, to balance the exploration and exploitation abilities, a new search mechanism is designed.The performance of this algorithm is verified by using 27 benchmark functions and 5 nonnegative linear least squares test problems.And the comparison analyses are given between the proposed algorithm and other swarm intelligence algorithms.Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm displays a high performance compared with other algorithms for global optimization problems and nonnegative linear least squares problems.
