Abstract
Biogeography based Optimization (BBO) is a new evolutionary optimization algorithm based on the science of biogeography for global optimization. However, its direct-copying-based migration and random mutation operators make it easily possess local exploitation ability. To enhance the performance of BBO, we propose an improved BBO algorithm called imBBO. A hybrid migration operation is designed to further improve the population diversity and enhance the algorithm exploration ability. Empirical results demonstrate that our imBBO effectively gains the high optimization performance by comparing with the original BBO and three BBO variants for 23 out of 30 CEC’2017 benchmarks. Moreover, our imBBO presents a faster convergence speed.
