Abstract

Butterfly Optimization Algorithm (BOA) is a recent metaheuristics algorithm that mimics the behavior of butterflies in mating and foraging. In this paper, three improved versions of BOA have been developed to prevent the original algorithm from getting trapped in local optima and have a good balance between exploration and exploitation abilities. In the first version, Opposition-Based Strategy has been embedded in BOA while in the second Chaotic Local Search has been embedded. Both strategies: Opposition-based & Chaotic Local Search have been integrated to get the most optimal/near-optimal results. The proposed versions are compared against original Butterfly Optimization Algorithm (BOA), Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO), Moth-flame Optimization (MFO), Particle warm Optimization (PSO), Sine Cosine Algorithm (SCA), and Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) using CEC 2014 benchmark functions and 4 different real-world engineering problems namely: welded beam engineering design, tension/compression spring, pressure vessel design, and Speed reducer design problem. Furthermore, the proposed approches have been applied to feature selection problem using 5 UCI datasets. The results show the superiority of the third version (CLSOBBOA) in achieving the best results in terms of speed and accuracy.
