Improved Queuing Search Optimization for Global Search

Full experiment with Benchmark Functions Test

• In the file: full_experiment.pdf

How to read our repository

• utils: includes helper functions (objective functions used in meta-heuristic algorithms)

  • We have also built a framework for benchmark functions (such as unimodal, multimodal, composition, ... CEC 2014, ...)
  • Check it out: https://pypi.org/project/opfunu/

• script_test

  • Included each algorithm-run file (Test purpose)
  • To run it, move it to root folder (code_IQSO_MLP) like the file: run_GA.py

• models: includes all algorithms (4 folders)

  • human_based

  • physics_based

  • swarm_based

  • evolutionary_based

  • The file: root_algo.py is the root for all meta-heuristic algorithms. Because there are lots of common functions among algorithms. So better to have an abstract layer for all algorithms.

  • We are building a library for all the state-of-the-art meta-heuristic algorithms using python.

  • It haven't done yet, but you can check its development version at: https://github.com/thieunguyen5991/metaheuristics

• How to run?

  • 1st: run file run_multiple_algo.py (run each algorithm 15 times and save the best fitness of each run times and loss of the best among 15 run times into folder: convergence and stability)

  • 2nd: run file get_experiment_infor.py to read saved data from 1st step. Then transform that data into dict type for making latex table then save it in folder: overall/all_algo_infor.pkl

  • 3rd: run file gen_result_tex.py to make latex table from all_algo_infor.pkl file

  • 4th: run file plot_stab_conv.py to draw convergence and stability of 30 functions.

  • To change the parameters of models in: run_multiple_algo.py
