Abstract
Enhanced comprehensive learning particle swarm optimization (ECLPSO) is a metaheuristic recently proposed by us for global optimization. ECLPSO is balanced in exploration and exploitation; however, it still cannot satisfactorily address some complex multimodal problems. In this paper, we investigate further improving the exploration performance of ECLPSO through exemplar evolution (EE). EE encourages information exchange among different dimensions of the search space and performs mutation and selection on personal best positions that are exemplars guiding the flight of particles. EE is able to prevent the dimensions from getting stuck in stagnancy. Experimental results on various benchmark functions demonstrate that the EE strategy significantly improves the exploration performance of ECLPSO and helps ECLPSO to locate the global optimum region on all of the functions.
