Abstract:
In this work, novel swarm optimization algorithm based on the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm called Enhanced Artificial Bee Colony (EABC) algorithm is proposed for the design and optimization of the analog CMOS circuits. The new search strategies adopted improve overall performance of the proposed algorithm. The performance of EABC algorithm is compared with other competitive algorithms such as ABC, GABC (G-best Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm) and MABC (Modified Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm) by designing three CMOS circuits; Two-stage operational amplifier, low-voltage bulk driven OTA and second generation low-voltage current conveyor in 0.13 [Formula: see text]m and 0.09[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m CMOS technologies. The obtained results clearly indicate that the performance of EABC algorithm is better than other mentioned algorithms and it can be an effective approach for the automatic design of the analog CMOS circuits.

Abstract:
In this paper, we design, implement, and analysis the replacement of the method to create new solutions in artificial bee colony algorithm by recombination operators, since the original method is similar to the recombination process used in evolutionary algorithms. For that purpose, we present a systematic investigation of the effect of using six different recombination operators for real-coded representations at the employed bee step. All the analysis is carried out using well known test problems. The experimental results suggest that the method to generate a new candidate food position plays an important role in the performance of the algorithm. Computational results and comparisons show that three of the six proposed algorithms are very competitive with the traditional bee colony algorithm.

Abstract:
Artificial bee colony (ABC) is one of the newest additions to the class of swarm intelligence. ABC algorithm has been shown to be competitive with some other population-based algorithms. However, there is still an insufficiency that ABC is good at exploration but poor at exploitation. To make a proper balance between these two conflictive factors, this paper proposed a novel ABC variant with a time-varying strategy where the ratio between the number of employed bees and the number of onlooker bees varies with time. The linear and nonlinear time-varying strategies can be incorporated into the basic ABC algorithm, yielding ABC-LTVS and ABC-NTVS algorithms, respectively. The effects of the added parameters in the two new ABC algorithms are also studied through solving some representative benchmark functions. The proposed ABC algorithm is a simple and easy modification to the structure of the basic ABC algorithm. Moreover, the proposed approach is general and can be incorporated in other ABC variants. A set of 21 benchmark functions in 30 and 50 dimensions are utilized in the experimental studies. The experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed time-varying strategy.

Abstract:
It is the research hotspot for evolutionary algorithms to solve the contradiction between exploration and exploitation. Cellular artificial bee colony (CABC) algorithm is proposed by combining cellular automata with artificial bee colony algorithm from the perspective of the neighborhood in this paper. Each bee in the population structure defined in CABC has a fixed position and can only interact with bees in its neighborhood. The overlap between neighborhoods of different bees may make a bee an employed bee in one neighborhood and an onlooker bee in another neighborhood and vice versa, which increases the diversity of the population. The neighborhood and evolutionary rule help to control the selection pressure effectively, and the improved search mechanism in artificial bee colony algorithm is proposed to enhance the local search ability. The experimental results tested on four benchmark functions show that CABC can further balance the relationship between exploration and exploitation when compared with three ABC-based algorithms.

Abstract:
Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) optimization algorithm is relatively a simple and recent population based probabilistic approach for global optimization. ABC has been outperformed over some Nature Inspired Algorithms (NIAs) when tested over test problems as well as real world optimization problems. This paper presents an attempt to modify ABC to make it less susceptible to stick at local optima and computationally efficient. In the case of local convergence, addition of some external potential solutions may help the swarm to get out of the local valley and if the algorithm is taking too much time to converge then deletion of some swarm members may help to speed up the convergence. Therefore, in this paper a dynamic swarm size strategy in ABC is proposed. The proposed strategy is named as Dynamic Swarm Artificial Bee Colony algorithm (DSABC). To show the performance of DSABC, it is tested over 16 global optimization problems of different complexities and a popular real world optimization problem namely Lennard-Jones potential energy minimization problem. The simulation results show that the proposed strategies outperformed than the basic ABC and three recent variants of ABC, namely, the Gbest-Guided ABC, Best-So-Far ABC and Modified ABC.

Abstract:
Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) is one of the most recently introduced algorithms based on the intelligent foraging behavior of a honey bee swarm. This paper presents an extended ABC algorithm, namely, the Cooperative Article Bee Colony (CABC), which significantly improves the original ABC in solving complex optimization problems. Clustering is a popular data analysis and data mining technique; therefore, the CABC could be used for solving clustering problems. In this work, first the CABC algorithm is used for optimizing six widely used benchmark functions and the comparative results produced by ABC, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and its cooperative version (CPSO) are studied. Second, the CABC algorithm is used for data clustering on several benchmark data sets. The performance of CABC algorithm is compared with PSO, CPSO, and ABC algorithms on clustering problems. The simulation results show that the proposed CABC outperforms the other three algorithms in terms of accuracy, robustness, and convergence speed.

Abstract:
Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) is one of the most recent nature inspired (NIA) algorithms based on swarming metaphor. Proposed by Karaboga in 2005, ABC has proven to be a robust and efficient algorithm for solving global optimization problems over continuous space. However, it has been observed that the structure of ABC is such that it supports exploration more in comparison to exploitation. In order to maintain a balance between these two antagonist factors, this paper suggests incorporation of differential evolution (DE) operators in the structure of basic ABC algorithm. The proposed algorithm called DE-ABC is validated on a set of 10 benchmark problems and the numerical results are compared with basic DE and basic ABC algorithm. The numerical results indicate that the presence of DE operators help in a significant improvement in the performance of ABC algorithm.

Abstract:
Learning problems for Neural Network (NN) has widely been explored in the past two decades. Researchers have focused more on population-based algorithms because of its natural behavior processing. The population-based algorithms are Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), Artificial Bee Colony (ABC), and recently Hybrid Ant Bee Colony (HABC) algorithm produced an easy way for NN training. These social based techniques are mostly used for finding best weight values and over trapping local minima in NN learning. Typically, NN trained by traditional approach, namely the Backpropagation (BP) algorithm, has difficulties such as trapping in local minima and slow convergence. The new method named Global Hybrid Ant Bee Colony (G-HABC) algorithm which can overcome the gaps in BP is used to train the NN for Boolean Function classification task. The simulation results of the NN when trained with the proposed hybrid method were compared with that of Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) and ordinary ABC. From the results, the proposed G-HABC algorithm has shown to provide a better learning performance for NNs with reduced CPU time and higher success rates.

Abstract:
It is known that both exploration and exploitation are important in the search equations of ABC algorithms. How to well balance the two abilities in the search process is still a challenging problem in ABC algorithms. In this paper, we propose a novel artificial bee algorithm named as “NABC,” by incorporating the information of the global best solution into the solution search equation of the onlookers stage to improve the exploitation. At the same time, we improve the search equation of the employed bees to keep the exploration. The experimental results of NABC tested on a set of 11 numerical benchmark functions show good performance and fast convergence in solving function optimization problems, compared with variant ABC, DE, and PSO algorithms. The application of NABC on solving five standard knapsack problems shows its effectiveness and practicability.

Abstract:
Being prone to the shortcomings of premature and slow convergence rate of artificial bee colony algorithm, an improved algorithm was proposed. Chaotic reverse learning strategies were used to initialize swarm in order to improve the global search ability of the algorithm and keep the diversity of the algorithm; the similarity degree of individuals of the population was used to characterize the diversity of population; population diversity measure was set as an indicator to dynamically and adaptively adjust the nectar position; the premature and local convergence were avoided effectively; dual population search mechanism was introduced to the search stage of algorithm; the parallel search of dual population considerably improved the convergence rate. Through simulation experiments of 10 standard testing functions and compared with other algorithms, the results showed that the improved algorithm had faster convergence rate and the capacity of jumping out of local optimum faster.

Abstract:
The performance of Neural Networks (NN) depends on network structure, activation function and suitable weight values. For finding optimal weight values, freshly, computer scientists show the interest in the study of social insect’s behavior learning algorithms. Chief among these are, Ant Colony Optimzation (ACO), Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm, Hybrid Ant Bee Colony (HABC) algorithm and Global Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm train Multilayer Perceptron (MLP). This paper investigates the new hybrid technique called Global Artificial Bee Colony-Levenberq-Marquardt (GABC-LM) algorithm. One of the crucial problems with the BP algorithm is that it can sometimes yield the networks with suboptimal weights because of the presence of many local optima in the solution space. To overcome GABC-LM algorithm used in this work to train MLP for the boolean function classification task, the performance of GABC-LM is benchmarked against MLP training with the typical LM, PSO, ABC and GABC. The experimental result shows that GABC-LM performs better than that standard BP, ABC, PSO and GABC for the classification task.

However, there is still an insufficiency in ABC regarding its solution search equation, which is good at exploration but poor at exploitation. To overcome this problem, we propose a novel artificial bee colony algorithm based on particle swarm search mechanism. In this algorithm, for improving the convergence speed, the initial population is generated by using good point set theory rather than random selection firstly. Secondly, in order to enhance the exploitation ability, the employed bee, onlookers, and scouts utilize the mechanism of PSO to search new candidate solutions. Finally, for further improving the searching ability, the chaotic search operator is adopted in the best solution of the current iteration. Our algorithm is tested on some well-known benchmark functions and compared with other algorithms. Results show that our algorithm has good performance.

Abstract:
Data clustering is a widespread data compression, vector quantization, data analysis, and data mining technique. In this work, a modified form of ABC, i.e. global artificial bee colony search algorithm (GABCS) is applied to data clustering. In GABCS the modification is due to the fact that experienced bees can use past information of quantity of food and position to adjust their movements in a search space. Due to this fact, solution search equations of the canonical ABC are modified in GABCS and applied to three famous real datasets in this work i.e. iris, thyroid, wine, accessed from the UCI database for the purpose of data clustering and results were compared with few other stated algorithms such as K-NM-PSO, TS, ACO, GA, SA and ABC. The results show that while calculating intra-clustering distances and computation time on all three real datasets, the proposed GABCS algorithm gives far better performance than other algorithms whereas calculating computation numbers it performs adequately as compared to typical ABC.

Abstract In this paper, one of the newest meta-heuristic algorithms, named artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm, is used to solve the single-reservoir operation optimization problem. The simple and hydropower reservoir operation optimization problems of Dez reservoir, in southern Iran, have been solved here over 60, 240, and 480 monthly operation time periods considering two different decision variables. In addition, to improve the performance of this algorithm, two improved artificial bee colony algorithms have been proposed and these problems have been solved using them. Furthermore, in order to improve the performance of proposed algorithms to solve large-scale problems, two constrained versions of these algorithms have been proposed, in which in these algorithms the problem constraints have been explicitly satisfied. Comparison of the results shows that using the proposed algorithm leads to better results with low computational costs in comparison with other available methods such as genetic algorithm (GA), standard and improved particle swarm optimization (IPSO) algorithm, honey-bees mating optimization (HBMO) algorithm, ant colony optimization algorithm (ACOA), and gravitational search algorithm (GSA). Therefore, the proposed algorithms are capable algorithms to solve large reservoir operation optimization problems.

In the bee-to-bee communication model, with the enhanced information exchange strategy, individuals can share more information from the elites through the Von Neumann topology. With the multipopulation cooperative mechanism, the hierarchical colony with different topologies can be structured, which can maintain diversity of the whole community. The experimental results on comparing the MABC to several successful EA and SI algorithms on a set of benchmarks demonstrated the advantage of the MABC algorithm. Furthermore, we employed the MABC algorithm to resolve the multilevel image segmentation problem.

Abstract:
Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm is one of the swarm intelligence algorithms; it has been introduced by Karaboga in 2005. It is a meta-heuristic optimization search algorithm inspired from the intelligent foraging behavior of the honey bees in nature. Its unique search process made it as one of the most competitive algorithm with some other search algorithms in the area of optimization, such as Genetic algorithm (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). However, the ABC performance of the local search process and the bee movement or the solution improvement equation still has some weaknesses. The ABC is good in avoiding trapping at the local optimum but it spends its time searching around unpromising random selected solutions. Inspired by the PSO, we propose a Hybrid Particle-movement ABC algorithm called HPABC, which adapts the particle movement process to improve the exploration of the original ABC algorithm. Numerical benchmark functions were used in order to experimentally test the HPABC algorithm. The results illustrate that the HPABC algorithm can outperform the ABC algorithm in most of the experiments (75% better in accuracy and over 3 times faster).

Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm is one of the efficient nature-inspired optimization algorithms for solving continuous problems. It has no sensitive control parameters and has been shown to be competitive with other well-known algorithms. However, the slow convergence, premature convergence, and being trapped within the local solutions may occur during the search. In this paper, we propose a new Modified Artificial Bee Colony (MABC) algorithm to overcome these problems. All phases of ABC are determined for improving the exploration and exploitation processes. We use a new search equation in employed bee phase, increase the probabilities for onlooker bees to find better positions, and replace some worst positions by the new ones in onlooker bee phase. Moreover, we use the Firefly algorithm strategy to generate a new position replacing an unupdated position in scout bee phase. Its performance is tested on selected benchmark functions. Experimental results show that MABC is more effective than ABC and some other modifications of ABC.

Abstract:
The main objective of short-term hydrothermal scheduling is the optimal allocation of the hydro and thermal generating units, so that the total cost of thermal plants can be minimized. The time of operation of the functioning units are considered to be 24 h. To achieve this objective, the hybrid algorithm combination of Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) and the BAT algorithm were applied. The swarming behavior of the algorithm searches the food source for which the objective function of the cost is to be considered; here, we have used two search algorithms, one to optimize the cost function, and another to improve the performance of the system. In the present work, the optimum scheduling of hydro and thermal units is proposed, where these units are acting as a relay unit. The short term hydrothermal scheduling problem was tested in a Chilean system, and confirmed by comparison with other hybrid techniques such as Artificial Bee Colony–Quantum Evolutionary and Artificial Bee Colony–Particle Swarm Optimization. The efficiency of the proposed hybrid algorithm is established by comparing it to these two hybrid algorithms.

Although it has been proven to be competitive to other population-based algorithms, there still exist some problems it cannot solve very well. This paper presents an Enhanced Hybridized Artificial Bee Colony (EHABC) algorithm for optimization problems. The incentive mechanism of EHABC includes enhancing the convergence speed with the information of the global best solution in the onlooker bee phase and enhancing the information exchange between bees by introducing the mutation operator of Genetic Algorithm to ABC in the mutation bee phase. In addition, to enhance the accuracy performance of ABC, the opposition-based learning method is employed to produce the initial population. Experiments are conducted on six standard benchmark functions. The results demonstrate good performance of the enhanced hybridized ABC in solving continuous numerical optimization problems over ABC GABC, HABC and EABC.

Multiobjective optimization has been a difficult problem and focus for research in fields of science and engineering. This paper presents a novel algorithm based on artificial bee colony (ABC) to deal with multi-objective optimization problems. ABC is one of the most recently introduced algorithms based on the intelligent foraging behavior of a honey bee swarm. It uses less control parameters, and it can be efficiently used for solving multimodal and multidimensional optimization problems. Our algorithm uses the concept of Pareto dominance to determine the flight direction of a bee, and it maintains nondominated solution vectors which have been found in an external archive.

Abstract:
Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm inspired by the complex search and foraging behaviors of real honey bees is one of the most promising implementations of the Swarm Intelligence- (SI-) based optimization algorithms. Due to its robust and phase-divided structure, the ABC algorithm has been successfully applied to different types of optimization problems. However, some assumptions that are made with the purpose of reducing implementation difficulties about the sophisticated behaviours of employed, onlooker, and scout bees still require changes with the more literal procedures. In this study, the ABC algorithm and its well-known variants are powered by adding a new control mechanism in which the decision-making process of the employed bees managing transitions to the dance area is modeled. Experimental studies with different types of problems and analysis about the parallelization showed that the newly proposed approach significantly improved the qualities of the final solutions and convergence characteristics compared to the standard implementations of the ABC algorithms.

Abstract:
Purpose Keeping satellite position within close tolerances is key for the utilization of satellite formations for space missions. The presence of perturbation forces makes control inevitable if such mission objective is to be realised. Various approaches have been used to obtain feedback controller parameters for satellites in a formation; this paper aims to approach the problem of estimating the optimal feedback parameter for a leader–follower pair of satellites in a small eccentric orbit using nature-based search algorithms. Design/methodology/approach The chaotic artificial bee colony algorithm is a variant of the basic artificial bee colony algorithm. The algorithm mimics the behaviour of bees in their search for food sources. This paper uses the algorithm in optimizing feedback controller parameters for a satellite formation control problem. The problem is formulated to optimize the controller parameters while minimizing a fuel- and state-dependent cost function. The dynamical model of the satellite is based on Gauss variational equations with J2 perturbation.

Abstract:
The artificial bee colony (ABC) is a well-studied algorithm developed to solve continuous function optimization problems by Karboga and Akay in 2009. ABC has been proven to be more effective than other biological-inspired algorithms with good exploration. However, ABC suffers from low exploitation and slow convergence in some cases. The ABC algorithm study has risen significantly over the past decade, with many researchers trying to improve ABC performance and apply it to solve problems. One method to enhance ABC is to borrow exploration technique from other algorithms. Researchers use pheromone, which is a technique used by Ant Colony optimization algorithm, to enhance ABC and addressed several aspects of using a pheromone to enhance the ABC. This systematic review aims to review and analysis articles about using pheromone to enhance ABC. Articles on related topics were systematically searched in four major databases namely Scopus, Web of Science, Association for Computing Machinery ACM and Google Scholar. To ensure that all research articles were considered the start date is not restrictions the search carry out till February 2021.Five articles were selected based on our inclusion and exclusion criteria for the systematic review. The results show that the use Pheromone to enhance ABC can increase the ABC exploitation ability and overcoming the late convergence. This paper also illustrates several potential pheromone using for future work.

Abstract:
Spiking neurons are models designed to simulate, in a realistic manner, the behavior of biological neurons. Recently, it has been proven that this type of neurons can be applied to solve pattern recognition problems with great efficiency. However, the lack of learning strategies for training these models do not allow to use them in several pattern recognition problems. On the other hand, several bioinspired algorithms have been proposed in the last years for solving a broad range of optimization problems, including those related to the field of artificial neural networks (ANNs). Artificial bee colony (ABC) is a novel algorithm based on the behavior of bees in the task of exploring their environment to find a food source. In this paper, we describe how the ABC algorithm can be used as a learning strategy to train a spiking neuron aiming to solve pattern recognition problems. Finally, the proposed approach is tested on several pattern recognition problems. It is important to remark that to realize the powerfulness of this type of model only one neuron will be used. In addition, we analyze how the performance of these models is improved using this kind of learning strategy.

Abstract:
—Network reconfiguration is a process of changing the original structure of the distribution network system with the intention of balancing the load in every system’s feeder at the same time to optimize the operation of the system. The process involve the changing of switching state (tie switches and sectionalize switches), with the aim to find the best combination that can increase the performance of the system while satisfying with the operational constraints. The extreme necessity to the process has become a challenging mission for the researcher to overcome the reconfiguration problems. Recent years have seen a rapid development of evolutionary algorithms and swarm intelligence based algorithms to resolve for network reconfiguration problems. For that reason, this report deals with Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm to be implemented in network reconfiguration procedure to achieve the optimum level of operation. The ease and simplicity of the algorithm and the capability to find the global optimization solution has made this algorithm appropriate for this project. The objective of this work focused on improvements of distribution power system, in terms of minimizing the total real power loss and improving the voltage profile within the acceptable value. The algorithm was tested on two different radial distribution system (33 bus and 69 bus radial distribution systems)

Abstract:
Molecular docking method plays an important role on the quest of potential drug candidates, which has been proven to be a valuable tool for virtual screening. Molecular docking is commonly referred to as a parameter optimization problem. During the last decade, some optimization algorithms have been introduced, such as Lamarckian genetic algorithm (LGA) and SODOCK embedded in the AutoDock program. On the basis of the latest docking software AutoDock4.2, we present a novel docking program ABCDock, which incorporates mutual artificial bee colony (MutualABC) into AutoDock. Computer simulation results demonstrate that ABCDock takes precedence over AutoDock and SODOCK, in terms of convergence performance, accuracy, and the lowest energy, especially for highly flexible ligands. It is noteworthy that ABCDock yields a higher success rate. Also, in comparison with the other state-of-the-art docking methods, namely GOLD, DOCK and FlexX, ABCDock provides the smallest RMSD in 27 of 37 cases.

Abstract:
Optimal feature subset selection is an important and a difficult task for pattern classification, data mining, and machine intelligence applications. The objective of the feature subset selection is to eliminate the irrelevant and noisy feature in order to select optimum feature subsets and increase accuracy. The large number of features in a dataset increases the computational complexity thus leading to performance degradation. In this paper, to overcome this problem, angle modulation technique is used to reduce feature subset selection problem to four-dimensional continuous optimization problem instead of presenting the problem as a high-dimensional bit vector. To present the effectiveness of the problem presentation with angle modulation and to determine the efficiency of the proposed method, six variants of Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithms employ angle modulation for feature selection. Experimental results on six high-dimensional datasets show that Angle Modulated ABC algorithms improved the classification accuracy with fewer feature subsets.

Abstract:
Numerous computational algorithms are used to obtain a high performance in solving mathematics, engineering and statistical complexities. Recently, an attractive bio-inspired method—namely the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC)—has shown outstanding performance with some typical computational algorithms in different complex problems. The modification, hybridization and improvement strategies made ABC more attractive to science and engineering researchers. The two well-known honeybees-based upgraded algorithms, Gbest Guided Artificial Bee Colony (GGABC) and Global Artificial Bee Colony Search (GABCS), use the foraging behavior of the global best and guided best honeybees for solving complex optimization tasks. Here, the hybrid of the above GGABC and GABC methods is called the 3G-ABC algorithm for strong discovery and exploitation processes. The proposed and typical methods were implemented on the basis of maximum fitness values instead of maximum cycle numbers, which has provided an extra strength to the proposed and existing methods. The experimental results were tested with sets of fifteen numerical benchmark functions. The obtained results from the proposed approach are compared with the several existing approaches such as ABC, GABC and GGABC, result and found to be very profitable. Finally, obtained results are verified with some statistical testing.

Abstract:
This work proposes an enhanced artificial bee colony algorithm (ABC) to solve the vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW). In this work, the fuzzy technique, scatter search method, and SD-based selection method are combined into the artificial bee colony algorithm. Instead of randomly producing the new solution, the scout randomly chooses the replacement solution from the abandoned solutions from the onlooker bee stage. Effective customer location networks are constructed in order to minimize the overall distance. The proposed algorithm is tested on the Solomon benchmark dataset where customers live in different geographical locations. The results from the proposed algorithm are shown in comparison with other algorithms in the literature. The findings from the computational results are very encouraging. Compared to other algorithms, the proposed algorithm produces the best result for all testing problem sets. More significantly, the proposed algorithm obtains better quality than the other algorithms for 39 of the 56 problem instances in terms of vehicle numbers. The proposed algorithm obtains a better number of vehicles and shorter distances than the other algorithm for 20 of the 39 problem instances.

Abstract:
A novel artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm to detect structural damage via modal and frequency analyses is proposed (named as TCABC algorithm). Compared to the standard ABC algorithm, tabu search method and chaotic search method are adopted in the proposed algorithm to enhance the exploration and exploitation ability. The tabu search method uses a memory function to avoid the solution being trapped in a local minimum, which increases the exploitation ability. Chaotic search method generates more searching points for finding the global minimum, which increases the exploration ability. Additionally, the first roulette wheel selection is replaced by the tournament selection to enhance the global searching ability of the TCABC algorithm. Several explicit test functions and an implicit damage detection function are employed to check the numerical results obtained from ABC and TCABC algorithms. Afterward, the damage detection accuracy of the TCABC algorithm is verified under different circumstances, and several recommendations are given for using the TCABC algorithm to detect structural damages under actual conditions. Finally, an experimental study is applied to examine the performance of TCABC algorithm for damage detection. The results show the following: (1) compared to traditional ABC algorithm, TCABC algorithm performs better; (2) fewer groups lead to faster convergence as demonstrated by both algorithms used in the same damage situation; (3) TCABC algorithm can infer the locations and extents of the damage when the groupings are inaccurate; (4) the accuracy of the field test data profoundly affects the precision of the damage detection results. In other words, stronger noises result in worse identification results; (5) whether or not the noises exist, the more data are measured, the more accurate the results can be achieved; (6) the TCABC algorithm can efficiently detect structural damage in the experimental study.

Abstract:
Assembly Sequence Planning (ASP) and Assembly Line Balancing (ALB) are traditionally optimised independently. However recently, integrated ASP and ALB optimisation has become more relevant to obtain better quality solution and to reduce time to market. Despite many optimisation algorithms that were proposed to optimise this problem, the existing researches on this problem were limited to Evolutionary Algorithm (EA), Ant Colony Optimisation (ACO), and Particle Swarm Optimisation (PSO). This paper proposed a modified Artificial Bee Colony algorithm (MABC) to optimise the integrated ASP and ALB problem. The proposed algorithm adopts beewolves predatory concept from Grey Wolf Optimiser to improve the exploitation ability in Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm. The proposed MABC was tested with a set of benchmark problems. The results indicated that the MABC outperformed the comparison algorithms in 91% of the benchmark problems. Furthermore, a statistical test reported that the MABC had significant performances in 80% of the cases.

Abstract:
K-Means Clustering is a popular technique in data analysis and data mining. To remedy the defects of relying on the initialization and converging towards the local minimum in the K-Means Clustering (KMC) algorithm, a chaotic adaptive artificial bee colony algorithm (CAABC) clustering algorithm is presented to optimally partition objects into K clusters in this study. This algorithm adopts the max–min distance product method for initialization. In addition, a new fitness function is adapted to the KMC algorithm. This paper also reports that the iteration abides by the adaptive search strategy, and Fuch chaotic disturbance is added to avoid converging on local optimum. The step length decreases linearly during the iteration. In order to overcome the shortcomings of the classic ABC algorithm, the simulated annealing criterion is introduced to the CAABC. Finally, the confluent algorithm is compared with other stochastic heuristic algorithms on the 20 standard test functions and 11 datasets. The results demonstrate that improvements in CAABA-K-means have an advantage on speed and accuracy of convergence over some conventional algorithms for solving clustering problems.

In view of the miniaturization and decentralization characteristics of agricultural equipment factories in China, agricultural equipment manufacturing is well suited to the cloud manufacturing model, but there is no specific research on cloud services optimization for it. To fill the research gap, a cloud service optimization method is proposed in this paper. For the optimization model, the dynamic coefficient strategy and the reliability feedback update strategy are added to the mathematical model to strengthen the applicability of farming season. As optimization algorithm, a dynamic artificial ant-bee colony algorithm (DAABA) based on artificial ant colony algorithm and bee colony algorithm is presented. The optimal fusion evaluation strategy is used to save optimization time by reducing the useless iteration, and the iterative adjustment threshold strategy is adopted to improve the accuracy of cloud service by increasing the size of bee colony. Finally, the performance of DAABA is verified to be more superior by comparing with other algorithms.

Community structure is important for us to understand the functions and structure of the complex networks. In this paper, Heuristic Artificial Bee Colony (HABC) algorithm based on swarm intelligence is proposed for uncovering community. The proposed HABC includes initialization, employed bee searching, onlooker searching, and scout bee searching. In initialization stage, the nectar sources with simple community structure are generated through network dynamic algorithm associated with complete subgraph. In employed bee searching and onlooker searching stages, the searching function is redefined to address the community problem. The efficiency of searching progress can be improved by a heuristic function which is an average agglomerate probability of two neighbor communities. Experiments are carried out on artificial and real world networks, and the results demonstrate that HABC will have better performance in terms of comparing with the state-of-the-art algorithms.

Meta-heuristic algorithms are used to get optimal solutions in different engineering branches. Here four types of meta-heuristics algorithms are used such as evolutionary algorithms, swarm-based algorithms, physics based algorithms and human based algorithms respectively. Swarm based meta-heuristic algorithms are given more effective result in optimization problem issues and these are generated global optimal solution.

The efficiency of HAGOA meta-heuristic algorithm will analyze using 19 benchmarks functions from F1 to F19. In this paper, HAGOA algorithm is performed efficiency analyze test with Artificial Grasshopper optimization (AGOA), Hybrid Artificial Bee Colony with Salp (HABCS), Modified Artificial Bee Colony (MABC), and Modify Particle Swarm Optimization (MPSO) swarm based meta-heuristic algorithms using uni-modal and multi-modal functions in MATLAB. Comparison results are shown that HAGOA meta-heuristic algorithm is performed better efficiency than other swarm intelligence algorithms on the basics of high exploitation, high exploration, and high convergence rate. It also performed perfect balancing between exploitation and exploration in given search space.
