An improved spider optimization algorithm coordinated by pheromones.

ABSTRACT: Swarm intelligence algorithm is an important evolutionary computation method that optimizes the objective function by imitating the behaviors of various organisms in nature. A two-stage swarm intelligence algorithm named spider pheromone coordination algorithm (SPC) is proposed in this paper. SPC tries to explore as many feasible solutions as possible on the cobweb at the positioning stage. It simulates the release and reception of different pheromones between spiders at the hunting stage, and then spiders move towards prey under the co-action of winds and pheromones. Different from the existing algorithms, SPC simulates the process that spiders accomplish intra-species communications through different pheromones and considers the impact on spider wind movement. A large number of typical benchmark functions are used in comparative numerical experiments to verify the performances of SPC. Experiments are made to compare SPC with a series of swarm intelligence algorithms, showing that SPC has higher convergence accuracy and stronger global searchability, effectively keeping the diversity of feasible solutions.

Project description:With the rapid development of artificial intelligence and data science, Dynamic Bayesian Network (DBN), as an effective probabilistic graphical model, has been widely used in many engineering fields. And swarm intelligence algorithm is an optimization algorithm based on natural selection with the characteristics of distributed, self-organization and robustness. By applying the high-performance swarm intelligence algorithm to DBN structure learning, we can fully utilize the algorithm's global search capability to effectively process time-based data, improve the efficiency of network generation and the accuracy of network structure. This study proposes an improved bacterial foraging optimization algorithm (IBFO-A) to solve the problems of random step size, limited group communication, and the inability to maintain a balance between global and local searching. The IBFO-A algorithm framework comprises four layers. First, population initialization is achieved using a logistics-sine chaotic mapping strategy as the basis for global optimization. Second, the activity strategy of a colony foraging trend is constructed by combining the exploration phase of the Osprey optimization algorithm. Subsequently, the strategy of bacterial colony propagation is improved using a "genetic" approach and the Multi-point crossover operator. Finally, the elimination-dispersal activity strategy is employed to escape the local optimal solution. To solve the problem of complex DBN learning structures due to the introduction of time information, a DBN structure learning method called IBFO-D, which is based on the IBFO-A algorithm framework, is proposed. IBFO-D determines the edge direction of the structure by combining the dynamic K2 scoring function, the designed V-structure orientation rule, and the trend activity strategy. Then, according to the improved reproductive activity strategy, the concept of "survival of the fittest" is applied to the network candidate solution while maintaining species diversity. Finally, the global optimal network structure with the highest score is obtained based on the elimination-dispersal activity strategy. Multiple tests and comparison experiments were conducted on 10 sets of benchmark test functions, two non-temporal and temporal data types, and six data samples of two benchmark 2T-BN networks to evaluate and analyze the optimization performance and structure learning ability of the proposed algorithm under various data types. The experimental results demonstrated that IBFO-A exhibits good convergence, stability, and accuracy, whereas IBFO-D is an effective approach for learning DBN structures from data and has practical value for engineering applications.
