Abstract
En 中文
Seeker optimization algorithm is one of the recent swarm intelligence metaheuristics for hard optimization problems. It is based on the human group search behavior and it was successfully applied to various numerical optimization problems. While the seeker optimization algorithm was proven to be successful for different specific problems, it was not properly tested on a wide set of benchmark functions. Our testing on the standard well-known set of benchmark functions shows that the seeker optimization algorithm has serious problems with some types of functions. In this paper we introduced modifications to the seeker optimization algorithm to control exploitation/exploration balance and hybridized it with elements of the firefly algorithm that improved its exploitation capabilities. The firefly algorithm alone also exhibits deficiencies. Our proposed modified and hybridized seeker optimization algorithm not only overcame shortcomings of the original algorithms, but also outperformed other state-of-the-art swarm intelligence algorithms.
