2008 Eighth International Conference on Hybrid Intelligent Systems
Modified Harmony Search Methods for Uni-Modal and Multi-Modal Optimization
September 10-September 12
ISBN: 978-0-7695-3326-1
The Harmony Search (HS) method is an emerging meta-heuristic optimization algorithm. In this paper, we propose two modified HS methods to deal with the uni-modal and multi-modal optimization problems. The first modified HS method is based on the fusion of the HS and Differential Evolution (DE) technique, namely, HS-DE. The DE is employed here to optimize the members of the HS memory. The second modified HS method utilizes a novel HS memory management approach, and it targets at handling the multi-modal problems. Several nonlinear functions are used to demonstrate and verify the effectiveness of our two new HS methods.
