In this paper, we suggest a new multi-objective artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm by introducing an elitism strategy. The algorithm uses a fixed-size archive that is maintained based on crowding-distance to store non-dominated solutions found during the search process. In the proposed...

The Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm is one of the most recent swarm intelligence based algorithms which simulates the foraging behavior of honey bee colonies. In this work, a particle swarm inspired multi-elitist ABC algorithm named PS-MEABC is proposed and applied for real-parameter...
