Abstract EN
This paper proposes a modified artificial bee colony optimizer (MABC) by combining bee-to-bee communication pattern and multipopulation cooperative mechanism.
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.
Experimental results of the new method on a variety of images demonstrated the performance superiority of the proposed algorithm.
