Description
Summary:To address the issues of poor population diversity, low accuracy, and susceptibility to local optima in the Butterfly Optimization Algorithm (BOA), an Improved Butterfly Optimization Algorithm with multiple strategies (IBOA) is proposed. The algorithm employs SPM mapping and reverse learning methods to initialize the population, enhancing its diversity; utilizes Lévy flight and trigonometric search strategies to update individual positions during global and local search phases, respectively, expanding the search scope of the algorithm and preventing it from falling into local optima; and finally, it introduces a simulated annealing mechanism to accept worse solutions with a certain probability, enriching the diversity of solutions during the optimization process. Simulation experimental results comparing the IBOA with Particle Swarm Optimization, BOA, and three other improved BOA algorithms on ten benchmark functions demonstrate that the IBOA has improved convergence speed and search accuracy.
