Abstract

Gravitation field algorithm (GFA) is a novel
optimization algorithm derived from the Solar Nebular Disk
Model (SNDM) in astronomy, based on the formation of planets,
in recent years. In this research, an improved GFA with Optimal
Detection (GFA-OD) is proposed for unconstrained optimization
problems. Optimal Detection can efficiently locate the space that
more likely contains the optimal solution(s) by initializing part of
dust population randomly in the search space of a given problem,
and then improves the accuracy of solutions. The comparison of
results on four classical unconstrained optimization problems
with varying dimensions demonstrates that the proposed GFAOD
outperforms many other classical heuristic optimization
algorithms in accuracy, efficiency and running time in lower
dimensions, such as Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Particle Swarm
Optimization (PSO).
