Abstract

Abstract The use of metaheuristics is widespread for optimization in both scientific and industrial problems due to several reasons, including flexibility, simplicity, and robustness. Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO) is one of the most recent and popular algorithms in this area. In this work, opposition-based learning (OBL) is combined with GWO to enhance its exploratory behavior while maintaining a fast convergence rate. Spearman's correlation coefficient is used to determine the omega (ω) wolves (wolves with the lowest social status in the pack) on which to perform opposition learning. Instead of opposing all the dimensions in the wolf, a few dimensions of the wolf are selected on which opposition is applied. This assists with avoiding unnecessary exploration and achieving a fast convergence without deteriorating the probability of finding optimum solutions. The proposed algorithm is tested on 23 optimization functions. An extensive comparative study demonstrates the superiority of the proposed method. The source code for this algorithm is available at "https://github.com/dhargupta-souvik/sogwo"

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
