HHO Algorithm Combining Mutualism and Lens Imaging Learning.

Aiming at the problem that Harris hawks optimization algorithm converges slowly and is prone to local optimization, this paper proposes an improved Harris hawks optimization algorithm (IHHO) which combines mutually beneficial symbiosis and lens imaging learning. Firstly, the algorithm uses Tent chaotic map to initialize the population to increase the diversity of the population and improve the optimization performance of the algorithm. Secondly, in the exploration stage, the algorithm integrates the idea of mutually beneficial symbiosis and nonlinear inertia factor to enhance the exchange of population information and accelerate the convergence speed. Then, the algorithm uses lens imaging reverse learning strategy to perturb and mutate the Harris hawks position with a certain probability to improve the ability of the algorithm to jump out of the local optimum. Finally, the simulation results of 16 benchmark test functions show that IHHO has faster convergence speed, higher precision and stronger robustness compared with the other five algorithms. At the same time, IHHO is applied to the problem of image segmentation, and the simulation results verify the feasibility of the algorithm in practical engineering applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
