ABSTRACT
Transferring elite solutions between related tasks can facilitate the convergence of a multitasking evolutionary algorithm. However, if the transferred elite solutions are local optimal solutions, it may cause the algorithm to fall into local optimum. To address this problem, this paper proposes a multitasking optimization algorithm (MTO-ME) based on multiple elite solutions transfer. The experimental results on multitasking optimization benchmarks show that the proposed MTO-ME algorithm outperforms other state-of-the-art algorithms in terms of solution accuracy and convergence performance.
Keywords: Evolutionary multitasking, Knowledge transfer, k-means clustering, Multi-elite.
