Abstract
This paper proposes an improvement of whale optimization algorithm for optimization problems. In this study, the Rao algorithm was improved by means of procedures of spiral updating position. The algorithm was tested on six benchmark problems and compared with differential evolution (DE), intersection mutation differential evolution (IMDE) algorithm, and whale optimization algorithm (WOA). The computation results illustrated that the proposed algorithm can produce optimal solutions for three out of six functions. Comparing to the other three algorithms, the proposed algorithm has provided the best results. The findings prove that the algorithm should be improved in this direction and show that the algorithm produces several solutions obtained by the previously published methods, especially for the continuous step function, the multimodal function, and the discontinuous step function.
