Journal ArticleDOI
Opposition-Based Differential Evolution
TL;DR: This paper presents a novel algorithm to accelerate the differential evolution (DE), which employs opposition-based learning (OBL) for population initialization and also for generation jumping and results confirm that the ODE outperforms the original DE and FADE in terms of convergence speed and solution accuracy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhancing particle swarm optimization using generalized opposition-based learning
TL;DR: An enhanced PSO algorithm called GOPSO is presented, which employs generalized opposition-based learning (GOBL) and Cauchy mutation to overcome the problem of premature convergence when solving complex problems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metaheuristics in large-scale global continues optimization
TL;DR: The paper mainly covers the fundamental algorithmic frameworks such as decomposition and non-decomposition methods, and their current applications in the field of large-scale global optimization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diversity enhanced particle swarm optimization with neighborhood search
TL;DR: A hybrid PSO algorithm is proposed, called DNSPSO, which employs a diversity enhancing mechanism and neighborhood search strategies to achieve a trade-off between exploration and exploitation abilities.
Journal ArticleDOI
A novel population initialization method for accelerating evolutionary algorithms
TL;DR: A novel initialization approach which employs opposition-based learning to generate initial population is proposed which can accelerate convergence speed and also improve the quality of the final solution.
