This paper proposes an improved version of antlion optimizer (ALO) to solve data clustering problem. In this work, Cauchy distribution-based random walk is employed in place of uniform distribution to jump out of local optima as a first strategy. Then opposition-based learning model is utilized in conjunction with acceleration coefficient to overcome the slow convergence of classical ALO as second strategy to propose opposition-based ALO using Cauchy distribution (OB-C-ALO). The performance of the proposed OB-C-ALO is evaluated over a set of benchmark problems of different varieties of characteristics and analysed statistically by performing Wilcoxon rank-sum test. The proposed version then utilizes K-means clustering by refining the clusters formed using K-means as objective function. The algorithm is evaluated on six data sets of UCI machine learning repository and compared with classical ALO and recently developed version of ALO, namely OB-L-ALO, over benchmark test problems as well as data clustering problem and proved to be better in terms of performance achieved. |
