Constrained optimization is crucial in decision-making problems and has seen advancements in evolutionary algorithms, particularly in nature-inspired and swarm-intelligence-based paradigms. These algorithms, such as PSO, firefly algorithm, ACO, and BA, have shown promising results in tackling various problems.
Constrained optimization plays an important role in many decision-making problems and various real-world applications. In the last two decades, various evolutionary algorithms (EAs) were developed and still are developing under the umbrella of evolutionary computation. In general, EAs are mainly categorized into nature-inspired and swarm-intelligence- (SI-) based paradigms. All these developed algorithms have some merits and also demerits. Particle swarm optimization (PSO), firefly algorithm, ant colony optimization (ACO), and bat algorithm (BA) have gained much popularity and they have successfully tackled various test suites of benchmark functions and real-world problems. These SI-based algorithms follow the social and interactive principles to perform their search process while approximating solution for the given problems. In this paper, a multiswarm-intelligence-based algorithm (MSIA) is developed to cope with bound constrained functions. The suggested algorithm integrates the SI-based algorithms to evolve population and handle exploration versus exploitation issues. Thirty bound constrained benchmark functions are used to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm. The test suite of benchmark function is recently designed for the special session of EAs competition in IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (IEEE-CEC'13). The suggested algorithm has approximated promising solutions with good convergence and diversity maintenance for most of the used bound constrained single optimization problems.
