Adaptive infinite impulse response system identification using an enhanced golden jackal optimization

Abstract

Golden jackal optimization (GJO) is inspired by the cooperative attacking behavior of golden jackals and mainly simulates searching for prey, stalking and enclosing prey, and pouncing on prey to solve complicated optimization problems. However, the basic GJO has the disadvantages of premature convergence, a slow convergence rate and low computation precision. To enhance the overall search and optimization abilities, an enhanced golden jackal optimization (EGJO) method with the elite opposition-based learning technique and the simplex technique is proposed to address adaptive infinite impulse response system identification. The intention is to minimize the error fitness value and obtain the appropriate control parameters. The elite opposition-based learning technique boosts population diversity, enhances the exploration ability, extends the search range and avoids search stagnation. The simplex technique accelerates the search process, enhances the exploitation ability, improves the computational precision and increases the optimization depth. EGJO can not only achieve complementary advantages to avoid search stagnation but also balance exploration and exploitation to arrive at the best value. Three sets of experiments are used to verify the effectiveness and feasibility of EGJO. The experimental results clearly demonstrate that the optimization efficiency and recognition accuracy of EGJO are superior to those of AOA, GTO, HHO, MDWA, RSO, WOA, TSA and GJO. EGJO has a faster convergence rate, higher computation precision, better control parameters and better fitness value, and it is stable and resilient in solving the IIR system identification problem.
