The proposed algorithm used the advantages of both the algorithms in order to balance the trade-off between exploration and exploitation. Experiments have been conducted on the proposed algorithm using ten benchmark problems having a broad range of dimensions and diverse complexities. The simulation results demonstrate that the convergence speed and accuracy of the proposed algorithm in finding optimal solutions is significantly better than BOA and ABC.}, year = {2017}, journal = {International Journal of Interactive Multimedia and Artificial Intelligence}, volume = {4}, number = {4}, pages = {14-21}, month = {06/2017}, issn = {1989-1660}, url = {http://www.ijimai.org/journal/sites/default/files/files/2016/12/ijimai20174_4_2_pdf_16914.pdf}, doi = {10.9781/ijimai.2017.442}, }
