Improved Frog Leaping Algorithm Using Cellular Learning Automata

Abstract

In this paper, a new algorithm which is the result of the combination of cellular learning automata and frog leap algorithm (SFLA) is proposed for optimization in continuous, static environments.At the proposed algorithm, each memeplex of frogs is placed in a cell of cellular learning automata. Learning automata in each cell acts as the brain of memeplex, and will determine the strategy of motion and search.The proposed algorithm along with the standard SFLA and two global and local versions of particle swarm optimization algorithm have been tested in 30-dimensional space on five standard merit functions. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has a very good performance.
