Aiming at the shortcomings of Wolf Pack Algorithm (WPA), such as slow convergence, being easy to fall into local optimum and unsatisfactory artificial wolf interactivity, a wolf pack algorithm based on modified search strategy was proposed, which named Modified Wolf Pack Algorithm (MWPA). In order to promote the exchange of information between the artificial wolves, improve the wolves' grasp of the global information and enhance the exploring ability of wolves, the interactive strategy was introduced into scouting behaviors and summoning behaviors. An adaptive beleaguering strategy was proposed for beleaguering behaviors, which made the algorithm have a regulatory role. With the constant evolution of algorithm, the beleaguered range of wolves decreased constantly and the exploitation ability of algorithm strengthened constantly. Thus the convergence rate of algorithm was enhanced. The simulation results of six typical complex functions of optimization problems show that compared to the Wolf Colony search Algorithm based on the strategy of the Leader (LWCA), the proposed method obtains higher solving accuracy, faster convergence speed and is especially suitable for function optimization problems.

Aiming at the shortcomings of Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm and its improved algorithms in solving high-dimensional complex function optimization problems, such as low solution precision, slow convergence, being easy to fall in local optimum and too many control parameters of improved algorithms, an improved artificial bee colony algorithm using phased search was proposed. In this algorithm, to reduce the probability of being falling into local extremum, the segmental-search strategy was used to make the employed bees have different characteristics in different stages of search. The escape radius was defined to guide the precocity individual to jump out of the local extremum and avert the blindness of escape operation. Meanwhile, to improve the quality of initialization food sources, the uniform distribution method and opposition-based learning theory were used. The simulation results of eight typical high-dimensional complex functions of optimization problems show that the proposed method not only obtains higher solving accuracy, but also has faster convergence speed. It is especially suitable for solving high-dimensional optimization problems.
