The occurrence ofpremature convergence is forecasted using colony entropy and colony variance. When prematureconvergence occurs, new individuals are generated in proper scale randomly based on superiorindividuals in the colony. We use these new individuals to replace some individuals in the oldcolony. The updated individuals account for 30 percent - 40 percent of all individuals and the sizeof scale is related to the distribution of the extreme value of the target function. Simulationtests show that there is much improvement in the speed of convergence and the probability of globalconvergence.展开更多

The bias and mean squared error of proposed estimators are obtained. An empirical study is carried out to assess the efficiency of proposed estimators over the existing estimators with the help of some known natural populations and it shows that the proposed estimators are almost unbiased and it perform better than the existing estimators.展开更多
