Ensemble mutation-driven salp swarm algorithm with restart mechanism: Framework and fundamental analysis

作者:

Highlights:

• Composite mutation strategy (CMS) and restart strategy (RS) are embedded into SSA.

• CMS is able to boost the exploitation and exploration trends of SSA.

• RS is capable of assisting salps in getting away from local optimum.

• The proposed method is verified on IEEE CEC2017 benchmarks.

• The proposed method is also tested on IEEE CEC2011 and engineering problems.
