摘要
In order to solve the shortcomings of multifactorial evolutionary algorithm (MFEA) of insufficient local search ability, a self-learning strategy based on the quasi-Newton method was proposed to be embedded in the MFEA. Combining the characteristics of MFEA, three types of embedding strategies were designed and applied to the solution of multi-task optimization problems. Experimental results show that the performance of embedded MFEA is far superior to the adaptive memetic algorithm-multifactorial evolution algorithm (AMA-MFEA), which is also improved based on the quasi-Newton method. Research shows that under the condition of the same number of iterations, subpopulation embedding can exert the best effect;under the constraints of the same optimization time, random sampling embedding is the most effective. © 2021 Editorial Board of Journal of Huazhong University of Science and Technology.
