Abstract

Artificial bee colony (ABC) is a popular swam intelligence algorithm. In ABC, a food source is considered as a feasible solution. Bees flying in the sky and searching food sources is converted into an optimization process. In contrast with other swarm intelligence algorithms, ABC has fewer parameters and stronger search ability. Though ABC excels at exploration, it does not perform well in exploitation. This paper proposes an improved ABC algorithm based on a new search strategy (called NSSABC), in which some current global best solutions are preserved and they are used to guide the search. Experiment was performed on some classical problems and results shows the proposed strategy greatly improves the optimization ability of ABC.
