Abstract EN
Fruit fly optimization algorithm (FOA) invented recently is a new swarm intelligence method based on fruit fly’s foraging behaviors and has been shown to be competitive with existing evolutionary algorithms, such as particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm.
However, there are still some disadvantages in the FOA, such as low convergence precision, easily trapped in a local optimum value at the later evolution stage.
This paper presents an improved FOA based on the cell communication mechanism (CFOA), by considering the information of the global worst, mean, and best solutions into the search strategy to improve the exploitation.
The results from a set of numerical benchmark functions show that the CFOA outperforms the FOA and the PSO in most of the experiments.
Further, the CFOA is applied to optimize the controller for preoxidation furnaces in carbon fibers production.
Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the CFOA.
