Abstract
- A good trade-off between exploration and exploitation to find optimal values in search algorithms is very hard to achieve. On the other hand, the combination of search methods may cause computational complexity increase problems. The Gravitational Search Algorithm (GSA) is a swarm optimization algorithm based on the law of gravity, where the solution search process depends on the velocity of particles. The application of intelligent techniques can improve the search performances of GSA. This paper proposes the design of a Neuro and Fuzzy Gravitational Search Algorithm (NFGSA) to achieve better results than GSA in terms of global optimum search capability and convergence speed, without increasing the computational complexity. Both the algorithms have the same computational complexity O ( nd ), where n is the number of agents and d is the search space dimension. The main task of the designed intelligent system is to adjust a GSA parameter on a revised version of GSA. NFGSA is compared with GSA, a Plane Surface Gravitational Search Algorithm (PSGSA) and a Modified Gravitational Search Algorithm (MGSA). The results show that NFGSA improves the optimization performances of GSA and PSGSA, without adding computational costs. Moreover, the proposed algorithm is better than MGSA for a benchmark function and achieves similar results for two test functions. The analysis on the computational complexity shows that NFGSA has a better computational complexity than MGSA, because NFGSA has complexity O ( nd ), whereas MGSA has complexity O (( nd ) 2 ).
