Abstract To enhance the diversity and distribution uniformity of initial population, as well as to avoid local extrema in the Chimp Optimization Algorithm (CHOA), this paper improves the CHOA based on chaos initialization and Cauchy mutation. First, Sin chaos is introduced to improve the random population initialization scheme of the CHOA, which not only guarantees the diversity of the population, but also enhances the distribution uniformity of the initial population. Next, Cauchy mutation is added to optimize the global search ability of the CHOA in the process of position (threshold) updating to avoid the CHOA falling More >

Abstract In order to address the problems of Coyote Optimization Algorithm in image thresholding, such as easily falling into local optimum, and slow convergence speed, a Fuzzy Hybrid Coyote Optimization Algorithm (hereinafter referred to as FHCOA) based on chaotic initialization and reverse learning strategy is proposed, and its effect on image thresholding is verified. Through chaotic initialization, the random number initialization mode in the standard coyote optimization algorithm (COA) is replaced by chaotic sequence. Such sequence is nonlinear and long-term unpredictable, these characteristics can effectively improve the diversity of the population in the optimization algorithm. Therefore,… More >
