Abstract

This paper presents a novel Simple Human Learning Optimization (SHLO) algorithm, which is inspired by human learning mechanisms. Three learning operators are developed to generate new solutions and search for the optima by mimicking the learning behaviors of human. The 0-1 knapsack problems are adopted as benchmark problems to validate the performance of SHLO, and the results are compared with those of binary particle swarm optimization (BPSO), modified binary differential evolution (MBDE), binary fruit fly optimization algorithm (bFOA) and adaptive binary harmony search algorithm (ABHS). The experimental results demonstrate that SHLO significantly outperforms BPSO, MBDE, bFOA and ABHS. Considering the ease of implementation and the excellence of global search ability, SHLO is a promising optimization tool.
