This paper aims at the shortcomings of marine predators algorithm, such as low initial population quality and easy to fall into local optimum. In this paper, an improved marine predator algorithm is proposed to solve the above problems. Firstly, the algorithm uses opposition-based learning to generate high quality initial population. Secondly, the algorithm applies refracted opposition-based learning and opposition-based learning according to individual fitness. This method can generate high quality populations for local and global scope to improve population diversity obviously. Then, the adaptive mechanism is used to prevent the function from falling into local optimum at the later stage of iteration. Finally, the algorithm selects 14 test functions to verify performance.
