Adjusted Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) Algorithm for Engineering Problems
Authors: , ,
Abstract: In this paper we present a modified algorithm which integrates artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm with adaptive guidance adjusted for engineering optimization problems. The novel algorithm speeds up the convergence and improves the algorithm’s exploitation/exploration balance. Even though scout bee phase is used for exploration, we introduced adaptive parameter that at different stages of the algorithm narrows search space facialiting faster convergence. We tested our algorithm on four standard engineering benchmark problems. The experimental results show that our modified algorithm can outperform the pure ABC algorithm in most cases.
