Title
Hybridizing Shuffled Frog Leaping and Shuffled Complex Evolution Algorithms Using Local Search Methods
Abstract
In this research, a study was carried out to exploit the hybrid schemes combining two classical local search techniques i.e. Nelder-Mead simplex search method and bidirectional random optimization with two meta-heuristic methods i.e. the shuffled frog leaping and the shuffled complex evolution, respectively. In this hybrid methodology, each subset of meta-heuristic algorithms is improved by a hybrid strategy that is combined from evolutionary process of each subset in related algorithm and a local search method. These hybrid algorithms are evaluated on low and high dimensional continuous benchmark functions and the obtained results are compared with their non-hybrid competitors. The obtained results demonstrate that the hybrid algorithm combined from shuffled frog leaping and Nelder-Mead simplex has a better success rate but a higher number of function evaluations on low-dimensional functions than the shuffled frog leaping. Whereas on high-dimensional functions it has a better success rate and a faster performance. Also the hybrid algorithm combined from shuffled complex evolution and bidirectional random optimization obtains a better performance in terms of success rate and function evaluations than shuffled complex evolution on low dimensional functions; whereas on high-dimensional functions, it obtains a better success rate but a slower performance. Also a comparison of our hybrid algorithms with the other evolutionary algorithms reported in the literature confirms our proposed algorithms have the best performance among all compared algorithms.
