This paper discusses a new variant of the Henry Gas Solubility Optimization (HGSO) Algorithm, called Hybrid HGSO (HHGSO). Unlike its predecessor, HHGSO allows multiple clusters serving different individual meta-heuristic algorithms (i.e., with its own defined parameters and local best) to coexist within the same population. Exploiting the dynamic cluster-to-algorithm mapping via penalized and reward model with adaptive switching factor, HHGSO offers a novel approach for meta-heuristic hybridization consisting of Jaya Algorithm, Sooty Tern Optimization Algorithm, Butterfly Optimization Algorithm, and Owl Search Algorithm, respectively. The acquired results from the selected two case studies (i.e., involving team formation problem and combinatorial test suite generation) indicate that the hybridization has notably improved the performance of HGSO and gives superior performance against other competing meta-heuristic and hyper-heuristic algorithms.

The emerging research paradigm coined as multitasking optimization aims to solve multiple optimization tasks concurrently by means of a single search process. For this purpose, the exploitation of complementarities among the tasks to be solved is cru cial, which is often achieved via the transfer of genetic material, thereby forging the Transfer Optimization field. In this context, Evolutionary Multitasking addresses this paradigm by resorting to concepts from Evolutionary Computation. Within this specific branch, approaches such as the Multifactorial Evolutionary Algorithm (MFEA) has lately gained a notable momentum when tackling multiple optimization tasks. This work contributes to this trend by proposing the first adaptation of the recently introduced Multifactorial Evolutionary Algorithm II (MFEA-II) to permutation-based discrete optimization environments. For modeling this adaptation, some concepts cannot be directly applied to discrete search spaces, such as parent-centric interactions. In this paper we entirely reformulate such concepts, making them suited to deal with permutation-based search spaces without loosing the inherent benefits of MFEA-II. The performance of the proposed solver has been assessed over 5 different multitasking setups, composed by 8 datasets of the well-known Traveling Salesman (TSP) and Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problems (CVRP). The obtained results and their comparison to those by the discrete version of the MFEA confirm the good performance of the developed dMFEA-II, and concur with the insights drawn in previous studies for continuous optimization.
The amount of completely sequenced chloroplast genomes increases rapidly every day, leading to the possibility to build large-scale phylogenetic trees of plant species. Considering a subset of close plant species defined according to their chloroplas ts, the phylogenetic tree that can be inferred by their core genes is not necessarily well supported, due to the possible occurrence of problematic genes (i.e., homoplasy, incomplete lineage sorting, horizontal gene transfers, etc.) which may blur the phylogenetic signal. However, a trustworthy phylogenetic tree can still be obtained provided such a number of blurring genes is reduced. The problem is thus to determine the largest subset of core genes that produces the best-supported tree. To discard problematic genes and due to the overwhelming number of possible combinations, this article focuses on how to extract the largest subset of sequences in order to obtain the most supported species tree. Due to computational complexity, a distributed Binary Particle Swarm Optimization (BPSO) is proposed in sequential and distributed fashions. Obtained results from bo
Dynamic Algorithm Configuration (DAC) aims to dynamically control a target algorithms hyperparameters in order to improve its performance. Several theoretical and empirical results have demonstrated the benefits of dynamically controlling hyperparame ters in domains like evolutionary computation, AI Planning or deep learning. Replicating these results, as well as studying new methods for DAC, however, is difficult since existing benchmarks are often specialized and incompatible with the same interfaces. To facilitate benchmarking and thus research on DAC, we propose DACBench, a benchmark library that seeks to collect and standardize existing DAC benchmarks from different AI domains, as well as provide a template for new ones. For the design of DACBench, we focused on important desiderata, such as (i) flexibility, (ii) reproducibility, (iii) extensibility and (iv) automatic documentation and visualization. To show the potential, broad applicability and challenges of DAC, we explore how a set of six initial benchmarks compare in several dimensions of difficulty.
Although showing competitive performances in many real-world optimization problems, Teaching Learning based Optimization Algorithm (TLBO) has been criticized for having poor control on exploration and exploitation. Addressing these issues, a new vari ant of TLBO called Adaptive Fuzzy Teaching Learning based Optimization (ATLBO) has been developed in the literature. This paper describes the adoption of Fuzzy Adaptive Fuzzy Teaching Learning based Optimization (ATLBO) for software module clustering problem. Comparative studies with the original Teaching Learning based Optimization (TLBO) and other Fuzzy TLBO variant demonstrate that ATLBO gives superior performance owing to its adaptive selection of search operators based on the need of the current search.

In this paper, we extend a bio-inspired algorithm called the porcellio scaber algorithm (PSA) to solve constrained optimization problems, including a constrained mixed discrete-continuous nonlinear optimization problem. Our extensive experiment resul ts based on benchmark optimization problems show that the PSA has a better performance than many existing methods or algorithms. The results indicate that the PSA is a promising algorithm for constrained optimization.
