摘要
In order to improve the overall performance of teaching-and-learning-based optimization (TLBO), in this paper, we propose a new self-adaptive teaching-and-learning-based optimization algorithm that uses a mixed strategy (MSTLBO). This strategy combines adaptive integrated cross learning with random and directional learning. These learning methods are chosen adaptively to enhance the searching ability for different evolutionary stages. We adopt a kind of directional disturbance strategy to increase the population diversity, and to avoid the possibility of the population falling into a local optimum. The experimental results on the benchmark functions show that the MSTLBO exhibits good performance in avoiding premature convergence, and both the convergence accuracy and convergence rate are significantly improved. © 2016, Editorial Department of Journal of HEU.
