چکیده
In this paper an improved version of the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm adjusted for constrained optimization problems is presented. It has been implemented and tested on several engineering benchmarks which contain discrete and continuous variables. Our results were compared to the results obtained by Simple Constrained Particle Swarm optimization algorithm (SiC-PSO) which showed a very good performance when it was applied to the same problems. Our results are of the comparable quality with faster convergence. Key-Words: Constrained optimization, Evolutionary computing, Artificial Bee Colony

A new meta-heuristic algorithm is proposed for optimal design of reinforced concrete (RC) frame structures subject to combinations of gravity and lateral static loads based on ACI 318-08 design code. In the present work, artificial bee colony algorithm (ABCA) is focused and an improved ABCA (IABCA) is proposed to achieve the optimization task. The total cost of the RC frames is minimized during...

Numerous problems in engineering and science can be converted into optimization problems. Artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm is a newly developed stochastic optimization algorithm and has been widely used in many areas. However, due to the stochastic characteristics of its solution search equation, the traditional ABC algorithm often suffers from poor exploitation. Aiming at this weakness o...
متن کاملAn Improved K-Means with Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm for Clustering Crimes
Crime detection is one of the major issues in the field of criminology. In fact, criminology includes knowing the details of a crime and its intangible relations with the offender. In spite of the enormous amount of data on offenses and offenders, and the complex and intangible semantic relationships between this information, criminology has become one of the most important areas in the field o...
متن کاملArtificial bee colony algorithm with multiple onlookers for constrained optimization problems
In this paper we present a modification of artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm for constrained optimization problems. In nature more than one onlooker bee goes to a promising food source reported by employed bee. Our proposed modification forms a mutant solution in onlooker phase using three onlookers. This approach obtains better results than the original artificial bee colony algorithm. Our...
