When solving real-world optimization problems, the uniformity of Pareto fronts is an essential strategy in multiobjective optimization problems (MOPs). However, it is a common challenge for many existing multiobjective optimization algorithms due to the skewed distribution of solutions and biases towards specific objective functions. This paper proposes a uniformity-comprehensive multiobjective optimization evolutionary algorithm based on machine learning to address this limitation. Our algorithm utilizes uniform initialization and self-organizing map (SOM) to enhance population diversity and uniformity. We track the IGD value and use K-means and CNN refinement with crossover and mutation techniques during evolutionary stages. Our algorithm’s uniformity and objective function balance superiority were verified through comparative analysis with 13 other algorithms, including eight traditional multiobjective optimization algorithms, three machine learning-based enhanced multiobjective optimization algorithms, and two algorithms with objective initialization improvements. Based on these comprehensive experiments, it has been proven that our algorithm outperforms other existing algorithms in these areas.

<abstract><p>With the widespread application of metaheuristic algorithms in engineering and scientific research, finding algorithms with efficient global search capabilities and precise local search performance has become a hot topic in research. The osprey optimization algorithm (OOA) was first proposed in 2023, characterized by its simple structure and strong optimization capability. However, practical tests have revealed that the OOA algorithm inevitably encounters common issues faced by metaheuristic algorithms, such as the tendency to fall into local optima and reduced population diversity in the later stages of the algorithm's iterations. To address these issues, a multi-strategy fusion improved osprey optimization algorithm is proposed (IOOA). First, the characteristics of various chaotic mappings were thoroughly explored, and the adoption of Circle chaotic mapping to replace pseudo-random numbers for population initialization improvement was proposed, increasing initial population diversity and improving the quality of initial solutions. Second, a dynamically adjustable elite guidance mechanism was proposed to dynamically adjust the position updating method according to different stages of the algorithm's iteration, ensuring the algorithm maintains good global search capabilities while significantly increasing the convergence speed of the algorithm. Lastly, a dynamic chaotic weight factor was designed and applied in the development stage of the original algorithm to enhance the algorithm's local search capability and improve the convergence accuracy of the algorithm. To fully verify the effectiveness and practical engineering applicability of the IOOA algorithm, simulation experiments were conducted using 21 benchmark test functions and the CEC-2022 benchmark functions, and the IOOA algorithm was applied to the LSTM power load forecasting problem as well as two engineering design problems. The experimental results show that the IOOA algorithm possesses outstanding global optimization performance in handling complex optimization problems and broad applicability in practical engineering applications.</p></abstract>

In numerous scientific disciplines and practical applications, addressing optimization challenges is a common imperative. Nature-inspired optimization algorithms represent a highly valuable and pragmatic approach to tackling these complexities. This paper introduces Dendritic Growth Optimization (DGO), a novel algorithm inspired by natural branching patterns. DGO offers a novel solution for intricate optimization problems and demonstrates its efficiency in exploring diverse solution spaces. The algorithm has been extensively tested with a suite of machine learning algorithms, deep learning algorithms, and metaheuristic algorithms, and the results, both before and after optimization, unequivocally support the proposed algorithm’s feasibility, effectiveness, and generalizability. Through empirical validation using established datasets like diabetes and breast cancer, the algorithm consistently enhances model performance across various domains.

In modern chemical engineering, various derivative-free optimization (DFO) studies have been conducted to identify operating conditions that maximize energy efficiency for efficient operation of processes. Although DFO algorithm selection is an essential task that leads to successful designs, it is a nonintuitive task because of the uncertain performance of the algorithms. In particular, when the system evaluation cost or computational load is high (e.g., density functional theory and computational fluid dynamics), selecting an algorithm that quickly converges to the near-global optimum at the early stage of optimization is more important. In this study, we compare the optimization performance in the early stage of 12 algorithms. The performance of deterministic global search algorithms, global model-based search algorithms, metaheuristic algorithms, and Bayesian optimization is compared by applying benchmark problems and analyzed based on the problem types and number of variables. Furthermore, we apply all algorithms to the energy process optimization that maximizes the thermal efficiency of the steam methane reforming (SMR) process for hydrogen production. In this application, we have identified a hidden constraint based on real-world operations, and we are addressing it by using a penalty function. Bayesian optimizations explore the design space most efficiently by training infeasible regions. As a result, we have observed a substantial improvement in thermal efficiency of 12.9% compared to the base case and 7% improvement when compared to the lowest performing algorithm.

Metaheuristic algorithms are proven to be more effective on finding global optimum in numerous problems including the constrained optimization area. The algorithms have the capacity to prevail over many deficiencies in conventional algorithms. Besides of good quality of performance, some metaheuristic algorithms have limitations that may deteriorate by certain degree of difficulties especially in real-world application. Most of the real-world problems consist of constrained problem that is significantly important in modern engineering design and must be considered in order to perform any optimization task. Therefore, it is essential to compare the performance of the algorithm in diverse level of difficulties in constrained region. This paper introduces Tree Physiology Optimization (TPO) algorithm for solving constrained optimization problem and compares the performance with other existing metaheuristic algorithms. The constrained problems that are included in the comparison are three engineering design and nonlinear mathematic problems. The difficulties of each proposed problem are the function complexity, number of constraints, and dimension of variables. The performance measure of each algorithm is the statistical results of finding the global optimum and the convergence towards global optimum.

Three modified proportional topology optimization (MPTO) algorithms are presented in this paper, which are named MPTOc, MPTOs and MPTOm, respectively. MPTOc aims to address the minimum compliance problem with volume constraint, MPTOs aims to solve the minimum volume fraction problem under stress constraint, and MPTOm aims to tackle the minimum volume fraction problem under compliance and stress constraints. In order to get rid of the shortcomings of the original proportional topology optimization (PTO) algorithm and improve the comprehensive performance of the PTO algorithm, the proposed algorithms modify the material interpolation scheme and introduce the Heaviside threshold function based on the PTO algorithm. To confirm the effectiveness and superiority of the presented algorithms, multiple optimization problems for the classical MBB beam are solved, and the original PTO algorithm is compared with the new algorithms. Numerical examples show that MPTOc, MPTOs and MPTOm enjoy distinct advantages over the PTO algorithm in the matter of convergence efficiency and the ability to obtain distinct topology structure without redundancy. Moreover, MPTOc has the fastest convergence speed among these algorithms and can acquire the smallest (best) compliance value. In addition, the new algorithms are also superior to PTO concerning suppressing gray-scale elements.

The main focus of this paper is to optimize the coverage of each 4G LTE network cell within the service area. There are many algorithms can be implemented to determine the optimal 4G LTE coverage area including the deterministic and heuristic approaches. The deterministic approach could solve accurately the optimization problem but need more resources and time consuming to determine the convergence parameters. Therefore, the heuristic approaches were introduced to improve the deterministic approach drawback. The methods used are the Differential Evolution Algorithm (DEA) and Adaptive Mutation Genetic Algorithm (AMGA), which are categorized as metaheuristic approach. The DEA and AMGA algorithms have been widely used to solve combinatorial problems, including for solving the network optimizations. In the network optimization, coverage is strongly related to 2 objectives, which are reducing the black spot area and decreasing the overlapping coverage areas. Coverage overlap is a condition when some cell sites in an area overlap. It implies in the occurrence of hand off and an inefficient network management. This research aims to obtain an optimal 4G LTE network coverage and reduce the overlapping coverage areas based on effective e-Node B arrangements by using the DEA and AMGA algorithms. The simulations results showed that the DEA algorithm’s coverage effectiveness was 23,4%, and the AMGA Algorithm’s was 16,32%.

Building energy optimization (BEO) is a promising technique to achieve energy efficient designs. The efficacy of optimization algorithms is imperative for the BEO technique and is significantly dependent on the algorithm hyperparameters. Currently, studies focusing on algorithm hyperparameters are scarce, and common agreement on how to set their values, especially for BEO problems, is still lacking. This study proposes a metamodel-based methodology for hyperparameter optimization of optimization algorithms applied in BEO. The aim is to maximize the algorithmic efficacy and avoid the failure of the BEO technique because of improper algorithm hyperparameter settings. The method consists of three consecutive steps: constructing the specific BEO problem, developing an ANN-trained metamodel of the problem, and optimizing algorithm hyperparameters with nondominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA-II). To verify the validity, 15 benchmark BEO problems with different properties, i.e., five building models and three design variable categories, were constructed for numerical experiments. For each problem, the hyperparameters of four commonly used algorithms, i.e., the genetic algorithm (GA), the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm, simulated annealing (SA), and the multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA), were optimized. Results demonstrated that the MOGA benefited the most from hyperparameter optimization in terms of the quality of the obtained optimum, while PSO benefited the most in terms of the computing time.

The Harris Hawks optimization (HHO) is a population-based metaheuristic algorithm; however, it has low diversity and premature convergence in certain problems. This paper proposes an adaptive relative reflection HHO (ARHHO), which increases the diversity of standard HHO, alleviates the problem of stagnation of local optimal solutions, and improves the search accuracy of the algorithm. The main features of the algorithm define nonlinear escape energy and adaptive weights and combine adaptive relative reflection with the HHO algorithm. Furthermore, we prove the computational complexity of the ARHHO algorithm. Finally, the performance of our algorithm is evaluated by comparison with other well-known metaheuristic algorithms on 23 benchmark problems. Experimental results show that our algorithms performs better than the compared algorithms on most of the benchmark functions.

This article compares the optimization algorithms included with ANSYS Software for optimizing the dimensions of a large steel framework to minimize weight while maintaining stiffness. A finite element model of the structure was prepared, and the section parameters were optimized using the sub-problem and first-order algorithms. These reduce the weight of the structure by 33.8%. The sub-problem algorithm and the first-order algorithm are explained from the rationale, iteration method, and convergence criterion. According to the optimized result, these two algorithms were compared. The results show that the sub-problem algorithm is faster and can control the overall design space, and the first-order algorithm is more precise.

With the development of science and technology, many optimization problems in real life have developed into high-dimensional optimization problems. The meta-heuristic optimization algorithm is regarded as an effective method to solve high-dimensional optimization problems. However, considering that traditional meta-heuristic optimization algorithms generally have problems such as low solution accuracy and slow convergence speed when solving high-dimensional optimization problems, an adaptive dual-population collaborative chicken swarm optimization (ADPCCSO) algorithm is proposed in this paper, which provides a new idea for solving high-dimensional optimization problems. First, in order to balance the algorithm’s search abilities in terms of breadth and depth, the value of parameter G is given by an adaptive dynamic adjustment method. Second, in this paper, a foraging-behavior-improvement strategy is utilized to improve the algorithm’s solution accuracy and depth-optimization ability. Third, the artificial fish swarm algorithm (AFSA) is introduced to construct a dual-population collaborative optimization strategy based on chicken swarms and artificial fish swarms, so as to improve the algorithm’s ability to jump out of local extrema. The simulation experiments on the 17 benchmark functions preliminarily show that the ADPCCSO algorithm is superior to some swarm-intelligence algorithms such as the artificial fish swarm algorithm (AFSA), the artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm, and the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm in terms of solution accuracy and convergence performance. In addition, the APDCCSO algorithm is also utilized in the parameter estimation problem of the Richards model to further verify its performance.

Optimization algorithms serve as a powerful instrument for tackling optimization issues and are highly valuable in the context of engineering design. The coati optimization algorithm (COA) is a novel meta-heuristic algorithm known for its robust search capabilities and rapid convergence rate. However, the effectiveness of the COA is compromised by the homogeneity of its initial population and its reliance on random strategies for prey hunting. To address these issues, a multi-strategy adaptive coati optimization algorithm (MACOA) is presented in this paper. Firstly, Lévy flights are incorporated into the initialization phase to produce high-quality initial solutions. Subsequently, a nonlinear inertia weight factor is integrated into the exploration phase to bolster the algorithm’s global search capabilities and accelerate convergence. Finally, the coati vigilante mechanism is introduced in the exploitation phase to improve the algorithm’s capacity to escape local optima. Comparative experiments with many existing algorithms are conducted using the CEC2017 test functions, and the proposed algorithm is applied to seven representative engineering design problems. MACOA’s average rankings in the three dimensions (30, 50, and 100) were 2.172, 1.897, and 1.759, respectively. The results show improved optimization speed and better performance.

This study presents a comprehensive framework for optimizing 5G network slices using metaheuristic algorithms, focusing on Enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB), Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communications (URLLC), and massive Machine Type Communications (mMTC) scenarios. The initial setup involves a MATLAB-based 5G New Radio (NR) Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) simulation and OpenAir-Interface (OAI) 5G network testbed, utilizing Ubuntu 22.04 Long Term Support (LTS), MicroStack, Open-Source MANO (OSM), and k3OS to create a versatile testing environment. Key network parameters are identified for optimization, including power control settings, signal-to-noise ratio targets, and resource block allocation, to address the unique requirements of different 5G use cases. Metaheuristic algorithms, specifically the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and Genetic Algorithm (GA), are employed to optimize these parameters. The algorithms are assessed based on their ability to enhance throughput, reduce latency, and minimize jitter within the network slices and the MATLAB simulation model. Each algorithm’s performance is evaluated through iterative testing, with improvements measured against established pre-optimization benchmarks. The results demonstrate significant enhancements in network performance post-optimization. For eMBB, the GA shows the most substantial increase in throughput, while PSO is most effective in reducing latency for URLLC applications. In mMTC scenarios, GA achieves the most notable reduction in jitter, illustrating the potential of metaheuristic algorithms in fine-tuning 5G networks to meet diverse service requirements. The study concludes that the strategic application of these algorithms can significantly improve the efficiency and reliability of 5G network slices, offering a scalable approach to managing the complex dynamics of next-generation wireless networks.

In this paper, we introduce the Levy Flight-enhanced Whale Optimization Algorithm with Tabu Search elements (LWOATS), an innovative hybrid optimization approach that enhances the standard Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) with advanced local search techniques and elite solution management to improve performance on global optimization problems. Techniques from the Tabu Search algorithm are adopted to balance the exploration and exploitation phases, while an elite reintroduction strategy is implemented to retain and refine the best solutions. The efficient optimization of LWOATS is further aided by the utilization of Levy flights and local search based on the Nelder–Mead simplex method. An Orthogonal Experimental Design (OED) analysis was employed to fine-tune the algorithm’s parameters. LWOATS was tested against three different algorithm sets: fundamental algorithms, advanced Differential Evolution (DE) variants, and improved WOA variants. Wilcoxon tests demonstrate the promising performance of LWOATS, showing improvements in convergence speed, accuracy, and robustness compared to traditional WOA and other metaheuristic algorithms. After extensive testing against a challenging set of benchmark functions and engineering optimization problems, we conclude that our proposed method is well suited for tackling high-dimensional optimization tasks and constrained optimization problems, providing substantial computational efficiency gains and improved overall solution quality.

To address the problems of low accuracy and slow convergence of traditional multilevel image segmentation methods, a symmetric cross-entropy multilevel thresholding image segmentation method (MSIPOA) with multi-strategy improved pelican optimization algorithm is proposed for global optimization and image segmentation tasks. First, Sine chaotic mapping is used to improve the quality and distribution uniformity of the initial population. A spiral search mechanism incorporating a sine cosine optimization algorithm improves the algorithm’s search diversity, local pioneering ability, and convergence accuracy. A levy flight strategy further improves the algorithm’s ability to jump out of local minima. In this paper, 12 benchmark test functions and 8 other newer swarm intelligence algorithms are compared in terms of convergence speed and convergence accuracy to evaluate the performance of the MSIPOA algorithm. By non-parametric statistical analysis, MSIPOA shows a greater superiority over other optimization algorithms. The MSIPOA algorithm is then experimented with symmetric cross-entropy multilevel threshold image segmentation, and eight images from BSDS300 are selected as the test set to evaluate MSIPOA.

Currently, certain complex issues are classified as NP-hard problems, for which there is no exact solution, or they cannot be solved in a reasonable amount of time. As a result, metaheuristic algorithms have been developed as an alternative. These algorithms aim to approximate the optimal solution rather than providing a definitive one. Over recent years, these algorithms have gained considerable attention from the research community. Nature and its inherent principles serve as the primary inspiration for the development of metaheuristic algorithms. A notable subgroup of these algorithms is evolutionary algorithms, which are modeled based on the behavior of social and intelligent animals and organisms. However, each metaheuristic algorithm typically excels only with specific types of problems. As a result, researchers continuously endeavor to develop new algorithms. This study introduces a novel metaheuristic algorithm known as the Farmer Ants Optimization Algorithm (FAOA). The algorithm is inspired by the life of farmer ants, which cultivate mushrooms for food, protect them from pests, and nourish them as they grow. These behaviors, based on their social dynamics, serve as the foundation for the proposed algorithm. Experiments conducted on various engineering and classical problems have demonstrated that the FAOA provides acceptable solutions for discrete optimization problems.

The Diversity-Maintained Adaptive Rafflesia Optimization Algorithm represents an enhanced version of the original Rafflesia Optimization Algorithm. The latter draws inspiration from the unique characteristics displayed by the Rafflesia during its growth, simulating the entire lifecycle from blooming to seed dispersion. The incorporation of the Adaptive Weight Adjustment Strategy and the Diversity Maintenance Strategy assists the algorithm in averting premature convergence to local optima, subsequently bolstering its global search capabilities. When tested on the CEC2013 benchmark functions under a dimension of 30, the new algorithm was compared with ten optimization algorithms, including commonly used classical algorithms, such as PSO, DE, CSO, SCA, and the newly introduced ROA. Evaluation metrics included mean and variance, and the new algorithm outperformed on a majority of the test functions. Concurrently, the new algorithm was applied to six real-world engineering problems: tensile/compressive spring design, pressure vessel design, three-bar truss design, welded beam design, reducer design, and gear system design. In these comparative optimizations against other mainstream algorithms, the objective function’s mean value optimized by the new algorithm consistently surpassed that of other algorithms across all six engineering challenges. Such experimental outcomes validate the efficiency and reliability of the Diversity-Maintained Adaptive Rafflesia Optimization Algorithm in tackling optimization challenges. The Diversity- Maintained Adaptive Rafflesia Optimization Algorithm is capable of tuning the parameter values for the optimization of symmetry and asymmetry functions. As part of our future research endeavors, we aim to deploy this algorithm on an even broader array of diverse and distinct optimization problems, such as the arrangement of wireless sensor nodes, further solidifying its widespread applicability and efficacy.

One of the most used artificial intelligence techniques for maximum power point tracking is artificial neural networks. In order to achieve successful results in maximum power point tracking, the training process of artificial neural networks is important. Metaheuristic algorithms are used extensively in the literature for neural network training. An important group of metaheuristic algorithms is swarm-intelligent-based optimization algorithms. In this study, feed-forward neural network training is carried out for maximum power point tracking by using 13 swarm-intelligent-based optimization algorithms. These algorithms are artificial bee colony, butterfly optimization, cuckoo search, chicken swarm optimization, dragonfly algorithm, firefly algorithm, grasshopper optimization algorithm, krill herd algorithm, particle swarm optimization, salp swarm algorithm, selfish herd optimizer, tunicate swarm algorithm, and tuna swarm optimization. Mean squared error is used as the error metric, and the performances of the algorithms in different network structures are evaluated. Considering the results, a success ranking score is obtained for each algorithm. The three most successful algorithms in both training and testing processes are the firefly algorithm, selfish herd optimizer, and grasshopper optimization algorithm, respectively. The training error values obtained with these algorithms are 4.5 × 10−4, 1.6 × 10−3, and 2.3 × 10−3, respectively. The test error values are 4.6 × 10−4, 1.6 × 10−3, and 2.4 × 10−3, respectively. With these algorithms, effective results have been achieved in a low number of evaluations. In addition to these three algorithms, other algorithms have also achieved mostly acceptable results. This shows that the related algorithms are generally successful ANFIS training algorithms for maximum power point tracking.

The sine cosine algorithm’s main idea is the sine and cosine-based vacillation outwards or towards the best solution. The first main contribution of this paper proposes an enhanced version of the SCA algorithm called as ESCA algorithm. The supremacy of the proposed algorithm over a set of state-of-the-art algorithms in terms of solution accuracy and convergence speed will be demonstrated by experimental tests. When these algorithms are transferred to the business sector, they must meet time requirements dependent on the industrial process. If these temporal requirements are not met, an efficient solution is to speed them up by designing parallel algorithms. The second major contribution of this work is the design of several parallel algorithms for efficiently exploiting current multicore processor architectures. First, one-level synchronous and asynchronous parallel ESCA algorithms are designed. They have two favors; retain the proposed algorithm’s behavior and provide excellent parallel performance by combining coarse-grained parallelism with fine-grained parallelism. Moreover, the parallel scalability of the proposed algorithms is further improved by employing a two-level parallel strategy. Indeed, the experimental results suggest that the one-level parallel ESCA algorithms reduce the computing time, on average, by 87.4% and 90.8%, respectively, using 12 physical processing cores. The two-level parallel algorithms provide extra reductions of the computing time by 91.4%, 93.1%, and 94.5% with 16, 20, and 24 processing cores, including physical and logical cores. Comparison analysis is carried out on 30 unconstrained benchmark functions and three challenging engineering design problems. The experimental outcomes show that the proposed ESCA algorithm behaves outstandingly well in terms of exploration and exploitation behaviors, local optima avoidance, and convergence speed toward the optimum. The overall performance of the proposed algorithm is statistically validated using three non-parametric statistical tests, namely Friedman, Friedman aligned, and Quade tests.

Optimization is the operation of finding the most appropriate solution for a particular problem or set of problems. In the literature, there are many population-based optimization algorithms for solving optimization problems. Each of these algorithms has different characteristics. Although optimization algorithms give optimum results on some problems, they become insufficient to give optimum results as the problem gets harder and more complex. Many studies have been carried out to improve optimization algorithms to overcome these difficulties in recent years. In this study, six well-known population-based optimization algorithms (artificial algae algorithm - AAA, artificial bee colony algorithm - ABC, differential evolution algorithm - DE, genetic algorithm - GA, gravitational search algorithm - GSA, and particle swarm optimization - PSO) were used. Each of these algorithms has its own advantages and disadvantages. These population-based six algorithms were tested on CEC’17 test functions and their performances were examined and so the characteristics of the algorithms were determined. Based on these results, hierarchical approaches have been proposed in order to combine the advantages of algorithms and achieve better results. The hierarchical approach refers to the successful operation of algorithms. In this study, eight approaches were proposed, and performance evaluations of these structures were made on CEC’17 test functions. When the experimental results are examined, it is concluded that some hierarchical approaches can be applied, and some hierarchical approaches surpass the base states of the algorithms.

This paper proposes an efficient particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique that can handle multi-objective optimization problems. It is based on the strength Pareto approach originally used in evolutionary algorithms (EA). The proposed modified particle swarm algorithm is used to build three hybrid EA-PSO algorithms to solve different multi-objective optimization problems. This algorithm and its hybrid forms are tested using seven benchmarks from the literature and the results are compared to the strength Pareto evolutionary algorithm (SPEA2) and a competitive multi-objective PSO using several metrics. The proposed algorithm shows a slower convergence, compared to the other algorithms, but requires less CPU time. Combining PSO and evolutionary algorithms leads to superior hybrid algorithms that outperform SPEA2, the competitive multi-objective PSO (MO-PSO), and the proposed strength Pareto PSO based on different metrics.

Recent advancements in computer science include some optimization models that have been developed and used in real applications. Some metaheuristic search/optimization algorithms have been tested to obtain optimal solutions to speed controller applications in self-driving cars. Some metaheuristic algorithms are based on social behaviour, resulting in several search models, functions, and parameters, and thus algorithm-specific strengths and weaknesses. The present paper proposes a fitness function on the basis of the mathematical description of proportional integrative derivate controllers showing that mean square error is not always the best measure when looking for a solution to the problem. The fitness developed in this paper contains features and equations from the mathematical background of proportional integrative derivative controllers to calculate the best performance of the system. Such results are applied to quantitatively evaluate the performance of twenty-one optimization algorithms. Furthermore, improved versions of the fitness function are considered, in order to investigate which aspects are enhanced by applying the optimization algorithms. Results show that the right fitness function is a key point to get a good performance, regardless of the chosen algorithm. The aim of this paper is to present a novel objective function to carry out optimizations of the gains of a PID controller, using several computational intelligence techniques to perform the optimizations. The result of these optimizations will demonstrate the improved efficiency of the selected control schema.

Evolutionary algorithms have proved to be efficient approaches in pursuing optimum solutions of multiobjective optimization problems with the number of objectives equal to or less than three. However, the searching performance degenerates in high-dimensional objective optimizations. In this paper we propose an algorithm for many-objective optimization with particle swarm optimization as the underlying metaheuristic technique. In the proposed algorithm, the objectives are decomposed and reconstructed using discrete decoupling strategy, and the subgroup procedures are integrated into unified coevolution strategy. The proposed algorithm consists of inner and outer evolutionary processes, together with adaptive factor μ, to maintain convergence and diversity. At the same time, a designed repository reconstruction strategy and improved leader selection techniques of MOPSO are introduced. The comparative experimental results prove that the proposed UMOPSO-D outperforms the other six algorithms, including four common used algorithms and two newly proposed algorithms based on decomposition, especially in high-dimensional targets.

Numerous optimization problems have been defined in different disciplines of science that must be optimized using effective techniques. Optimization algorithms are an effective and widely used method of solving optimization problems that are able to provide suitable solutions for optimization problems. In this paper, a new nature-based optimization algorithm called Snow Leopard Optimization Algorithm (SLOA) is designed that mimics the natural behaviors of snow leopards. SLOA is simulated in four phases including travel routes, hunting, reproduction, and mortality. The different phases of the proposed algorithm are described and then the mathematical modeling of the SLOA is presented in order to implement it on different optimization problems. A standard set of objective functions, including twenty-three functions, is used to evaluate the ability of the proposed algorithm to optimize and provide appropriate solutions for optimization problems. Also, the optimization results obtained from the proposed SLOA are compared with eight other well-known optimization algorithms. The optimization results show that the proposed SLOA has a high ability to solve various optimization problems. Also, the analysis and comparison of the optimization results obtained from the SLOA with the other eight algorithms shows that the SLOA is able to provide more appropriate quasi-optimal solutions and closer to the global optimal, and with better performance, it is much more competitive than similar algorithms.

Optimizing oil and gas production is of paramount importance in the petroleum sector, as it ensures the economic success of oil companies and meets the growing global demand for energy. The optimization of subsurface oil and gas production is critical for decision-makers, as it determines essential strategies like optimal well placement and well control parameters. Traditional reservoir production optimization methods often involve high computational costs and difficulties in achieving effective optimization. Evolutionary algorithms, inspired by biological evolution, have proven to be powerful tools for solving complex optimization challenges due to their independence from gradient information and efficient parallel processing capabilities. This paper proposes a highly efficient evolutionary algorithm for global optimization and oil and gas production optimization by enhancing the optimization performance of fruit fly optimization algorithm (FOA) through multi-swarm mechanism and greedy selection mechanism, which balance the algorithm’s search and development capabilities. Specifically, after updating the population of FOA, we first apply multi-swarm mechanism to help the population escape local optima and improve the algorithm’s search ability, and then apply greedy selection mechanism to enhance the population’s development potential. To verify the optimization performance of MGFOA, we conducted comprehensive experimental validations at IEEE CEC 2017 and IEEE CEC 2022, including ablation studies, scalability experiments, search trace visualizations, and comparisons with other similar algorithms. Finally, MGFOA significantly outperformed other comparable algorithms in oil and gas production optimization.

This paper introduces an enhanced Whale Optimization Algorithm, named the Multi-Swarm Improved Spiral Whale Optimization Algorithm (MISWOA), designed to address the shortcomings of the traditional Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) in terms of global search capability and convergence velocity. The MISWOA combines an adaptive nonlinear convergence factor with a variable gain compensation mechanism, adaptive weights, and an advanced spiral convergence strategy, resulting in a significant enhancement in the algorithm’s global search capability, convergence velocity, and precision. Moreover, MISWOA incorporates a multi-population mechanism, further bolstering the algorithm’s efficiency and robustness. Ultimately, an extensive validation of MISWOA through “simulation + experimentation” approaches has been conducted, demonstrating that MISWOA surpasses other algorithms and the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) and its variants in terms of convergence accuracy and algorithmic efficiency. This validates the effectiveness of the improvement method and the exceptional performance of MISWOA, while also highlighting its substantial potential for application in practical engineering scenarios. This study not only presents an improved optimization algorithm but also constructs a systematic framework for analysis and research, offering novel insights for the comprehension and refinement of swarm intelligence algorithms.

We have compared the performances of six recently developed global optimization algorithms: imperialist competitive algorithm, firefly algorithm (FA), water cycle algorithm (WCA), whale optimization algorithm (WOA), fireworks algorithm (FWA), and quantum particle swarm optimization (QPSO). These methods have been introduced in the past few years and have found very limited or no applications to geophysical exploration problems thus far. We benchmark the algorithms’ results against the particle swarm optimization (PSO), which is a popular and well-established global search method. In particular, we are interested in assessing the exploration and exploitation capabilities of each method as the dimension of the model space increases. First, we test the different algorithms on two multiminima and two convex analytic objective functions. Then, we compare them using the residual statics corrections and 1D elastic full-waveform inversion, which are highly nonlinear geophysical optimization problems. Our results demonstrate that FA, FWA, and WOA are characterized by optimal exploration capabilities because they outperform the other approaches in the case of optimization problems with multiminima objective functions. Differently, QPSO and PSO have good exploitation capabilities because they easily solve ill-conditioned optimizations characterized by a nearly flat valley in the objective function. QPSO, PSO, and WCA offer a good compromise between exploitation and exploration.

The Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), a prominent combinatorial optimization issue, is the subject of this study's evaluation of the performance of new and old optimization techniques. This paper seeks to expand knowledge of optimization techniques and how they might be applied to solve TSP challenges. The goal of the research is to compare various algorithms' scalability, convergence, and computation times on benchmark instances of several sizes. To achieve this goal, this paper carried out extensive testing using the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC), Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO), and Salp Swarm Algorithm (SSA) as new optimization algorithms and the Genetic Algorithm (GA), Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), and Simulated Annealing (SA) as old optimization algorithms. On small, medium, and large-scale benchmark cases, these algorithms were examined. The findings of this investigation show that the new optimization techniques are more convergent and scalable than the old ones, especially for medium-scale scenarios. They perform better performance in terms of solution quality by applying objective function values. The new methods also exhibit improved scalability, successfully adjusting to medium-scale instances. However, there were no discernible changes between the smaller and larger instances. This study makes an impact by offering insightful information about how well optimization methods perform while solving the TSP. Each algorithm's strengths and downsides have been reported, and these details offer useful guidance for choosing an algorithm for a certain scenario. The results also show the practical ramifications of applying novel optimization techniques, especially in medium-scale instances..

Linear programming is a mathematical optimization method that seeks the optimal solution under constraints, where all constraints and the objective function are linear functions. In the realm of artificial intelligence,genetic algorithms are employed for optimization tasks. genetic algorithms mimic natural evolution processes, including selection, crossover, mutation, and adaptation, to solve optimization and search problems.

This cycle repeats until an optimal solution is achieved. Advantages of genetic algorithms include their ability to handle complex solution spaces, find global optima, adapt to changing conditions, optimize multi-objective functions, and work with non-linear and non-differentiable objective functions. However, they may require significant computational resources and parameter tuning. The article then presents a case study of applying a genetic algorithm to optimize the allocation of a power load in an energy system. The mathematical model is developed, and the simplex method is initially used for solution. Subsequently, a Python program for genetic algorithm implementation is provided. The algorithm's efficiency and convergence are demonstrated through a graphical representation of the optimization process. In conclusion, the article highlights the effectiveness of genetic algorithms in energy optimization, showcasing their rapid convergence and ability to find near-optimal solutions in complex scenarios.

The activated sludge process (ASP) is the most widely used biological wastewater treatment system. Advances in research have led to the adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI), in particular, Nature-Inspired Algorithm (NIA) techniques such as Genetic Algorithms (GAs) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) to optimize treatment systems. This has aided in reducing the complexity and computational time of ASP modelling. This paper covers the latest NIAs used in ASP and discusses the advantages and limitations of each algorithm compared to more traditional algorithms that have been utilized over the last few decades. Algorithms were assessed based on whether they looked at real/ideal treatment plant (WWTP) data (and efficiency) and whether they outperformed the traditional algorithms in optimizing the ASP. While conventional algorithms such as Genetic Algorithms (GAs), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) were found to be successfully employed in optimization techniques, newer algorithms such as Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA), Bat Algorithm (BA), and Intensive Weed Optimization Algorithm (IWO) achieved similar results in the optimization of the ASP, while also having certain unique advantages.

Ship replenishment path planning has always been a critical concern for researchers in the field of security. This study proposes a modified whale optimization algorithm (MWOA) to address single-task ship replenishment path planning problems. To ensure high-quality initial solutions and maintain population diversity, a hybrid approach combining the nearest neighbor search with random search is employed for initial population generation. Additionally, crossover operations and destroy and repair operators are integrated to update the whale’s position, significantly enhancing the algorithm’s search efficiency and optimization performance. Furthermore, variable neighborhood search is utilized for local optimization to refine the solutions. The proposed MWOA has been tested against several algorithms, including the original whale optimization algorithm, genetic algorithm, ant colony optimization, hybrid particle swarm optimization, and simulated annealing, using traveling salesman problems as benchmarks. Results demonstrate that MWOA outperforms these algorithms in both solution quality and stability. Moreover, when applied to ship replenishment path planning problems of varying scales, MWOA consistently achieves superior performance compared to the other algorithms. The proposed algorithm demonstrates high adaptability in addressing diverse ship replenishment path planning problems, delivering efficient, high-quality, and reliable solutions.

Two versions of multi-objective brain storm optimization algorithm with different characteristics of diverging operation were tested to validate the usefulness and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. Experimental results show that the proposed multi-objective brain storm optimization algorithm is a very promising algorithm, at least for solving these tested multi-objective optimization problems.

Heuristic algorithms are effective methods for solving complex optimization problems. The optimal algorithm selection for a specific optimization problem is a challenging task. Fitness landscape analysis (FLA) is used to understand the optimization problem's characteristics and help select the optimal algorithm. A random walk algorithm is an essential technique for FLA in continuous search space. However, most currently proposed random walk algorithms suffer from unbalanced sampling points. This article proposes a Lévy flight-based random walk (LRW) algorithm to address this problem. The Lévy flight is used to generate the proposed random walk algorithm's variable step size and direction. Some tests show that the proposed LRW algorithm performs better in the uniformity of sampling points. Besides, the authors analyze the fitness landscape of the CEC2017 benchmark functions using the proposed LRW algorithm. The experimental results indicate that the proposed LRW algorithm can better obtain the structural features of the landscape and has better stability than several other RW algorithms.

Seagull optimization algorithm (SOA) inspired by the migration and attack behavior of seagulls in nature is used to solve the global optimization problem. However, like other well-known metaheuristic algorithms, SOA has low computational accuracy and premature convergence. Therefore, in the current work, these problems are solved by proposing the modified version of SOA. This paper proposes a novel hybrid algorithm, called whale optimization with seagull algorithm (WSOA), for solving global optimization problems. The main reason is that the spiral attack prey of seagulls is very similar to the predation behavior of whale bubble net, and the WOA has strong global search ability. Therefore, firstly, this paper combines WOA’s contraction surrounding mechanism with SOA’s spiral attack behavior to improve the calculation accuracy of SOA. Secondly, the levy flight strategy is introduced into the search formula of SOA, which can effectively avoid premature convergence of algorithms and balance exploration and exploitation among algorithms more effectively. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of solving global optimization problems, 25 benchmark test functions are tested, and WSOA is compared with seven famous metaheuristic algorithms. Statistical analysis and results comparison show that WSOA has obvious advantages compared with other algorithms. Finally, four engineering examples are tested with the proposed algorithm, and the effectiveness and feasibility of WSOA are verified.

In this research, two algorithms first, considered to be one of hybrid algorithms. And it is algorithm represents invasive weed optimization. This algorithm is a random numerical algorithm and the second algorithm representing the grey wolves optimization. This algorithm is one of the algorithms of swarm intelligence in intelligent optimization. The algorithm of invasive weed optimization is inspired by nature as the weeds have colonial behavior and were introduced by Mehrabian and Lucas in 2006. Invasive weeds are a serious threat to cultivated plants because of their adaptability and are a threat to the overall planting process. The behavior of these weeds has been studied and applied in the invasive weed algorithm. The algorithm of grey wolves, which is considered as a swarm intelligence algorithm, has been used to reach the goal and reach the best solution. The algorithm was designed by SeyedaliMirijalili in 2014 and taking advantage of the intelligence of the squadrons is to avoid falling into local solutions so the new hybridization process between the previous algorithms GWO and IWO and we will symbolize the new algorithm IWOGWO.Comparing the suggested hybrid algorithm with the original algorithms it results were excellent. The optimum solution was found in most of test functions.

Recently, numerous new meta-heuristic algorithms have been proposed for solving optimization problems. According to the Non-Free Lunch theorem, we learn that no single algorithm can solve all optimization problems. In order to solve industrial engineering design problems more efficiently, we, inspired by the algorithm framework of the Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm (AOA) and the Harris Hawks Optimization (HHO), propose a novel hybrid algorithm based on these two algorithms, named EAOAHHO in this paper. The pinhole imaging opposition-based learning is introduced into the proposed algorithm to increase the original population diversity and the capability to escape from local optima. Furthermore, the introduction of composite mutation strategy enhances the proposed EAOAHHO exploitation and exploration to obtain better convergence accuracy. The performance of EAOAHHO is verified on 23 benchmark functions and the IEEE CEC2017 test suite. Finally, we verify the superiority of the proposed EAOAHHO over the other advanced meta-heuristic algorithms for solving four industrial engineering design problems.

Metaheuristic algorithms are widely used for problems in many fields such as security, health, engineering. No metaheuristic algorithm can achieve the optimum solution for all optimization problems. For this, new metaheuristic methods are constantly being proposed and existing ones are being developed. Dandelion Optimizer, one of the most recent metaheuristic algorithms, is biology-based. Inspired by the wind-dependent long-distance flight of the ripening seed of the dandelion plant. It consists of three phases: ascending phase, descending phase and landing phase. In this study, the chaos-based version of Chaotically Initialized Dandelion Optimizer is proposed for the first time in order to prevent Dandelion Optimizer from getting stuck in local solutions and to increase its success in global search. In this way, it is aimed to increase global convergence and to prevent sticking to a local solution. While creating the initial population of the algorithm, six different Chaotically Initialized Dandelion Optimizer algorithms were presented using the Circle, Singer, Chebyshev, Gauss/Mouse, Iterative and Logistic chaotic maps. Two unimodal (Sphere and Schwefel 2.22), two multimodal (Schwefel and Rastrigin) and two fixed-dimension multimodal (Foxholes and Kowalik) quality test functions were used to compare the performances of the algorithms. When the experimental results were analyzed, it was seen that the Chaotically Initialized Dandelion Optimizer algorithms gave successful results compared to the classical Dandelion Optimizer.

Abstract In this paper, one of the newest meta-heuristic algorithms, named artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm, is used to solve the single-reservoir operation optimization problem. The simple and hydropower reservoir operation optimization problems of Dez reservoir, in southern Iran, have been solved here over 60, 240, and 480 monthly operation time periods considering two different decision variables. In addition, to improve the performance of this algorithm, two improved artificial bee colony algorithms have been proposed and these problems have been solved using them. Furthermore, in order to improve the performance of proposed algorithms to solve large-scale problems, two constrained versions of these algorithms have been proposed, in which in these algorithms the problem constraints have been explicitly satisfied. Comparison of the results shows that using the proposed algorithm leads to better results with low computational costs in comparison with other available methods such as genetic algorithm (GA), standard and improved particle swarm optimization (IPSO) algorithm, honey-bees mating optimization (HBMO) algorithm, ant colony optimization algorithm (ACOA), and gravitational search algorithm (GSA). Therefore, the proposed algorithms are capable algorithms to solve large reservoir operation optimization problems.
