Abstract

Aiming at overcoming drawbacks of imbalance between the global and local search ability of a single heuristic algorithm, this paper proposes a slime mould and flower pollination hybrid algorithm based on dynamic dual population, namely HASMFP. Firstly, HASMFP adopts a grouping mechanism that takes the distance between individual inside population and the current optimal individual into consideration to dynamically divided whole population into slime mold subpopulation and pollen subpopulation to balancing the exploration and development capabilities of the algorithm more effectively. Secondly, HASMFP uses a ranking mechanism based on similarity and fitness to improve diversity of slime mold population, and further increase the probability to jump out of local optimal. At third, HASMFP also adopts a dynamic weights and constant shrinkage coefficients with an elite guidance terms to further enhance the local and global search ability of standard flower pollination algorithm at the same time. 12 test functions from CEC2017 test suit were used as the testbed to evaluate the performance of HASMFP with other 5 algorithms: ISMA, DTSMA, HLFPA, SCFPA, and tMFPA. Ablation experiments was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of all improvement strategies applied in HASMFP, the experimental result shows that HASMFP can rank first under the combination of all improvement strategies. The result of Friedman test based on experimental data illustrates that HASMFP can achieve the supreme performance among all evaluated algorithms.
