Abstract

This paper presents an improved artificial bee colony algorithm. Under the framework of the basic artificial bee colony algorithm, this paper redefines the artificial bee colony and introduces search strategies for group escape and foraging based on Levy flight. The proposed algorithm is named artificial bee colony algorithm based on escaped foraging strategy (EFSABC).There are different strategies for scout bees, onlookers, and free bees searching for honey sources in the EFSABC: all working bees relinquish old honey sources due to disturbance, and select different routines to seek new honey sources. Sixteen typical high-dimensional standard functions are used to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. The EFSABC algorithm outperforms the traditional artificial bee colony algorithm in all aspects.
