In this way, the production is accelerated. This paper presents a discrete artificial bee colony (DABC) algorithm for a lot-streaming flowshop scheduling problem with total flowtime criterion. Unlike the basic ABC algorithm, the proposed DABC algorithm represents a solution as a discrete job permutation. An efficient initialization scheme based on the extended Nawaz-Enscore-Ham heuristic is utilized to produce an initial population with a certain level of quality and diversity. Employed and onlooker bees generate new solutions in their neighborhood, whereas scout bees generate new solutions by performing insert operator and swap operator to the best solution found so far. Moreover, a simple but effective local search is embedded in the algorithm to enhance local exploitation capability. A comparative experiment is carried out with the existing discrete particle swarm optimization, hybrid genetic algorithm, threshold accepting, simulated annealing and ant colony optimization algorithms based on a total of 160 randomly generated instances.

It performs well in most cases, however, there still exists an insufficiency in the ABC algorithm that ignores the fitness of related pairs of individuals in the mechanism of find- ing a neighboring food source. This paper presents an improved ABC algorithm with mutual learning (MutualABC) that adjusts the produced candidate food source with the higher fitness between two individuals selected by a mutual learning factor. The perfor- mance of the improved MutualABC algorithm is tested on a set of benchmark functions and compared with the basic ABC algo- rithm and some classical versions of improved ABC algorithms. The experimental results show that the MutualABC algorithm with appropriate parameters outperforms other ABC algorithms in most experiments.展开更多

How- ever, the ABC algorithm does not use the social information and lacks the knowledge of the problem structure, which leads to in- sufficiency in both convergent speed and searching precision. Archimedean copula estimation of distribution algorithm (ACEDA) is a relatively simple, time-economic and multivariate correlated EDA. This paper proposes a novel hybrid algorithm based on the ABC algorithm and ACEDA called Archimedean copula estima- tion of distribution based on the artificial bee colony (ACABC) algorithm. The hybrid algorithm utilizes ACEDA to estimate the distribution model and then uses the information to help artificial bees to search more efficiently in the search space. Six bench- mark functions are introduced to assess the performance of the ACABC algorithm on numerical function optimization. Experimen- tal results show that the ACABC algorithm converges much faster with greater precision compared with the ABC algorithm, ACEDA and the global best (gbest)-guided ABC (GABC) algorithm in most of the experiments.展开更多

However, the algorithm is still insufficient in balancing ex- ploration and exploitation. To solve this problem, we put forward an improved algorithm with a comprehensive search mechanism. The search mechanism contains three main strategies. Firstly, the heuristic Gaussian search strategy composed of three different search equations is proposed for the employed bees, which fully utilizes and balances the exploration and exploitation of the three different search equations by introducing the selectivity probability P,. Secondly, in order to improve the search accuracy, we propose the Gbest-guided neighborhood search strategy for onlooker bees to improve the exploitation performance of ABC. Thirdly, the self- adaptive population perturbation strategy for the current colony is used by random perturbation or Gaussian perturbation to en- hance the diversity of the population. In addition, to improve the quality of the initial population, we introduce the chaotic opposition- based learning method for initialization. The experimental results and Wilcoxon signed ranks test based on 27 benchmark func- tions show that the proposed algorithm, especially for solving high dimensional and complex function optimization problems, has a higher convergence speed and search precision than ABC and three other current ABC-based algorithms.展开更多

ABC consists of four phases named as initialization, employed bee, onlooker bee and scout bee. The employed bees try to improve their solution in employed bees phase. If an employed bee cannot improve self-solution in a certain time, it becomes a scout bee. This alteration is done in the scout bee phase. The onlooker bee phase is placed where information sharing is done. Although a candidate solution improved by onlookers is chosen among the employed bee population according to fitness values of the employed bees, neighbor of candidate solution is randomly selected. In this paper, we propose a selection mechanism for neighborhood of the candidate solutions in the onlooker bee phase. The proposed selection mechanism was based on information shared by the employed bees. Average fitness value obtained by the employed bees is calculated and those better than the aver- age fitness value are written to memory board. Therefore, the onlooker bees select a neighbor from the memory board. In this paper, the proposed ABC-based method called as iABC were applied to both five numerical benchmark functions and an estimation of energy demand problem. Obtained results for the problems show that iABC is better than the basic ABC in terms of solution quality.展开更多

In this paper, time delay and fractional order as well as system’s parameters are concerned by treating the time delay and fractional order as additional parameters. The parameter estimation is converted into a multi-dimensional optimization problem. A new scheme based on artificial bee colony(ABC) algorithm is proposed to solve the optimization problem. Numerical experiments are performed on two typical time-delay fractional-order chaotic systems to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

文摘The recently invented artificial bee colony (ABC) al- gorithm is an optimization algorithm based on swarm intelligence that has been used to solve many kinds of numerical function optimization problems. It performs well in most cases, however, there still exists an insufficiency in the ABC algorithm that ignores the fitness of related pairs of individuals in the mechanism of find- ing a neighboring food source. This paper presents an improved ABC algorithm with mutual learning (MutualABC) that adjusts the produced candidate food source with the higher fitness between two individuals selected by a mutual learning factor. The perfor- mance of the improved MutualABC algorithm is tested on a set of benchmark functions and compared with the basic ABC algo- rithm and some classical versions of improved ABC algorithms. The experimental results show that the MutualABC algorithm with appropriate parameters outperforms other ABC algorithms in most experiments.

文摘The artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm is a com- petitive stochastic population-based optimization algorithm. How- ever, the ABC algorithm does not use the social information and lacks the knowledge of the problem structure, which leads to in- sufficiency in both convergent speed and searching precision. Archimedean copula estimation of distribution algorithm (ACEDA) is a relatively simple, time-economic and multivariate correlated EDA. This paper proposes a novel hybrid algorithm based on the ABC algorithm and ACEDA called Archimedean copula estima- tion of distribution based on the artificial bee colony (ACABC) algorithm. The hybrid algorithm utilizes ACEDA to estimate the distribution model and then uses the information to help artificial bees to search more efficiently in the search space. Six bench- mark functions are introduced to assess the performance of the ACABC algorithm on numerical function optimization. Experimen- tal results show that the ACABC algorithm converges much faster with greater precision compared with the ABC algorithm, ACEDA and the global best (gbest)-guided ABC (GABC) algorithm in most of the experiments.

文摘The artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm is a sim- ple and effective global optimization algorithm which has been successfully applied in practical optimization problems of various fields. However, the algorithm is still insufficient in balancing ex- ploration and exploitation. To solve this problem, we put forward an improved algorithm with a comprehensive search mechanism. The search mechanism contains three main strategies. Firstly, the heuristic Gaussian search strategy composed of three different search equations is proposed for the employed bees, which fully utilizes and balances the exploration and exploitation of the three different search equations by introducing the selectivity probability P,. Secondly, in order to improve the search accuracy, we propose the Gbest-guided neighborhood search strategy for onlooker bees to improve the exploitation performance of ABC. Thirdly, the self- adaptive population perturbation strategy for the current colony is used by random perturbation or Gaussian perturbation to en- hance the diversity of the population. In addition, to improve the quality of the initial population, we introduce the chaotic opposition- based learning method for initialization. The experimental results and Wilcoxon signed ranks test based on 27 benchmark func- tions show that the proposed algorithm, especially for solving high dimensional and complex function optimization problems, has a higher convergence speed and search precision than ABC and three other current ABC-based algorithms.

文摘The operating state of bearing affects the performance of rotating machinery;thus,how to accurately extract features from the original vibration signals and recognise the faulty parts as early as possible is very critical.In this study,the one‐dimensional ternary model which has been proved to be an effective statistical method in feature selection is introduced and shapelet transformation is proposed to calculate the parameter of one‐dimensional ternary model that is usually selected by trial and error.Then XGBoost is used to recognise the faults from the obtained features,and artificial bee colony algorithm(ABC)is introduced to optimise the parameters of XGBoost.Moreover,for improving the performance of intelligent algorithm,an improved strategy where the evolution is guided by the probability that the optimal solution appears in certain solution space is proposed.The experimental results based on the failure vibration signal samples show that the average accuracy of fault signal recognition can reach 97%,which is much higher than the ones corresponding to traditional extraction strategies.And with the help of improved ABC algorithm,the performance of XGBoost classifier could be optimised;the accuracy could be improved from 97.02%to 98.60%compared with the traditional classification strategy.

文摘Flying Ad hoc Network(FANET)has drawn significant consideration due to its rapid advancements and extensive use in civil applications.However,the characteristics of FANET including high mobility,limited resources,and distributed nature,have posed a new challenge to develop a secure and ef-ficient routing scheme for FANET.To overcome these challenges,this paper proposes a novel cluster based secure routing scheme,which aims to solve the routing and data security problem of FANET.In this scheme,the optimal cluster head selection is based on residual energy,online time,reputation,blockchain transactions,mobility,and connectivity by using Improved Artificial Bee Colony Optimization(IABC).The proposed IABC utilizes two different search equations for employee bee and onlooker bee to enhance convergence rate and exploitation abilities.Further,a lightweight blockchain consensus algorithm,AI-Proof of Witness Consensus Algorithm(AI-PoWCA)is proposed,which utilizes the optimal cluster head for mining.In AI-PoWCA,the concept of the witness for block verification is also involved to make the proposed scheme resource efficient and highly resilient against 51%attack.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme outperforms its counterparts and achieves up to 90%packet delivery ratio,lowest end-to-end delay,highest throughput,resilience against security attacks,and superior in block processing time.

文摘Since the logarithmic form of Shannon entropy has the drawback of undefined value at zero points,and most existing threshold selection methods only depend on the probability information,ignoring the within-class uniformity of gray level,a method of reciprocal gray entropy threshold selection is proposed based on two-dimensional(2-D)histogram region oblique division and artificial bee colony(ABC)optimization.Firstly,the definition of reciprocal gray entropy is introduced.Then on the basis of one-dimensional(1-D)method,2-D threshold selection criterion function based on reciprocal gray entropy with histogram oblique division is derived.To accelerate the progress of searching the optimal threshold,the recently proposed ABC optimization algorithm is adopted.The proposed method not only avoids the undefined value points in Shannon entropy,but also achieves high accuracy and anti-noise performance due to reasonable 2-D histogram region division and the consideration of within-class uniformity of gray level.A large number of experimental results show that,compared with the maximum Shannon entropy method with 2-D histogram oblique division and the reciprocal entropy method with 2-D histogram oblique division based on niche chaotic mutation particle swarm optimization(NCPSO),the proposed method can achieve better segmentation results and can satisfy the requirement of real-time processing.

文摘Being as unique nonlinear components of block ciphers,substitution boxes(S-boxes) directly affect the security of the cryptographic systems.It is important and difficult to design cryptographically strong S-boxes that simultaneously meet with multiple cryptographic criteria such as bijection,non-linearity,strict avalanche criterion(SAC),bits independence criterion(BIC),differential probability(DP) and linear probability(LP).To deal with this problem,a chaotic S-box based on the artificial bee colony algorithm(CSABC) is designed.It uses the S-boxes generated by the six-dimensional compound hyperchaotic map as the initial individuals and employs ABC to improve their performance.In addition,it considers the nonlinearity and differential uniformity as the fitness functions.A series of experiments have been conducted to compare multiple cryptographic criteria of this algorithm with other algorithms.Simulation results show that the new algorithm has cryptographically strong S-box while meeting multiple cryptographic criteria.

文摘The artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm is a swarm-based metaheuristic optimization technique, developed by inspiring foraging and dance behaviors of honey bee colonies. ABC consists of four phases named as initialization, employed bee, onlooker bee and scout bee. The employed bees try to improve their solution in employed bees phase. If an employed bee cannot improve self-solution in a certain time, it becomes a scout bee. This alteration is done in the scout bee phase. The onlooker bee phase is placed where information sharing is done. Although a candidate solution improved by onlookers is chosen among the employed bee population according to fitness values of the employed bees, neighbor of candidate solution is randomly selected. In this paper, we propose a selection mechanism for neighborhood of the candidate solutions in the onlooker bee phase. The proposed selection mechanism was based on information shared by the employed bees. Average fitness value obtained by the employed bees is calculated and those better than the aver- age fitness value are written to memory board. Therefore, the onlooker bees select a neighbor from the memory board. In this paper, the proposed ABC-based method called as iABC were applied to both five numerical benchmark functions and an estimation of energy demand problem. Obtained results for the problems show that iABC is better than the basic ABC in terms of solution quality.
