Özet
The fruit fly optimization algorithm (FOA) has been developed by inspiring osphresis and vision behaviors of the fruit flies to solve continuous optimization problems. As many researchers know that FOA has some shortcomings, this study presents an improved version of FOA to remove with these shortcomings in order to improve its optimization performance. According to the basic version of FOA, the candidate solutions could not take values those are negative as well as stated in many studies in the literature. In this study, two sign parameters are added into the original FOA to consider not only the positive side of the search space, but also the whole. To experimentally validate the proposed approach, namely signed FOA, SFOA for short, 21 well-known benchmark problems are considered. In order to demonstrate the effectiveness and success of the proposed method, the results of the proposed approach are compared with the results of the original FOA, results of the two different state-of-art versions of particle swarm optimization algorithm, results of the cuckoo search optimization algorithm and results of the firefly optimization algorithm. By analyzing experimental results, it can be said that the proposed approach achieves more successful results on many benchmark problems than the compared methods, and SFOA is presented as more equal and fairer in terms of screening the solution space.
