Improved Hybrid Taboo Search with its Application in Computer-Aided Optimization Problem

Article Preview

Abstract:

A new improved algorithm of Taboo Search (TS), namely, Hybrid Taboo Search (HTS) is first introduced and tried for several test functions having multiple local optima. Here, Taboo Search was improved by combining Immune Arithmetic (IA) and Simulated Annealing (SA). Several strategies to improve the TS have been presented before, but the focus here is on the novelty, availability and precision of algorithm. There are several optimization problems in computer-aided design, so the article used the improved HTS in computer-aided optimization problems, the performance of which is compared with the performance of conventional TS (TS). Results show that HTS plays an important role in solving computer-aided optimization problems with the effectiveness and higher accuracy.
