A hybrid algorithm based on flower pollination algorithm and electro search for global optimization

In this paper, we have presented a new hybrid optimization method called hybrid Electro-Search algorithm (Eo) and Flower Pollination Optimization Algorithm (FPA) which introduces Eo to FPA. EO-FPA combines the merits of both Eo and FPA by designing on the local-search strategy from Eo and global-sea...

Description
Summary:In this paper, we have presented a new hybrid optimization method called hybrid Electro-Search algorithm (Eo) and Flower Pollination Optimization Algorithm (FPA) which introduces Eo to FPA. EO-FPA combines the merits of both Eo and FPA by designing on the local-search strategy from Eo and global-search strategy from FPA. The results of the experiments performed with twenty-two well-known benchmark functions show that the proposed algorithm possesses outstanding performance in statistical merit as compared to the original and variant FPA. It is proven that the EO-FPA algorithm requires better formulation to achieve efficiency and high performance to work out with global optimization problems.
