Performance Comparison Between the Original Forms of Biogeography-Based Optimization Algorithms

Abstract

Biogeography-based optimization (BBO) is a new population-based evolutionary algorithm and one of meta-heuristic algorithms. This technique is based on an

Essential Modifications on Biogeography-Based Optimization Algorithm

“…Curves of fitness functions of the original and modified PMB for some selected functions 05, Table 3 shows the CPU time comparison between the modified PMB BBO. It can be clearly seen from Table 3 the CPU time, which means that (SPMB-BBO) by around 24.76% [20]. Table 3.…”

“…Curves of fitness functions of the original and modified PMB for some selected functions 05, (b) f30-11, (c) f60-02, (d) f60-03 Table 3 shows the CPU time comparison between the modified PMB-BBO and the original PMB from Table 3 that the modified version can save around 32. that it is faster than even the simplified partial migration model % [20].…”

“…As a comparison between the four original models of BBO PMB-BBO gives the best performance when the given limits of search spaces, high-dimensional and/or the [20]. However, PMB-BBO lacks the exp version of PMB-BBO shows enhanced results, for some very hard test Transistor, Storn's Chebyshev, Trid "or Neumaier F3", Normalized Rana, Generalized Rosenbrock and Schwefel F1.2 problems, both version converge to the optimal solutions.…”

“…From preceding study [20], it is shown that SMB-BBO and SSMB-BBO give poor performance but with lowest CPU time, while the performance comparison between PMB-BBO and SPMB-BBO shows that PMB-BBO gives better performance as the complexity, side constrains and/or dimensions of a given problem increases and as the number of islands decreases; and vice versa for SPMB-BBO.…”

Solving the Associated Weakness of Biogeography-Based Optimization Algorithm

“…Simplified Partial Migration Based BBO "SPMB-BBO" 4. Simplified Single Migration Based BBO "SSMB-BBO" From preceding study [20], it is shown that SMB-BBO and SSMB-BBO give poor performance but with lowest CPU time, while the performance comparison between PMB-BBO and SPMB-BBO shows that PMB-BBO gives better performance as the complexity, side constrains and/or dimensions of a given problem increases and as the number of islands decreases; and vice versa for SPMB-BBO. This judgment could be clearly observed if the mutation algorithm is not activated, because it compensates for the weakness of the migration algorithm.…”
