Summary: | An improved multi-objective particle swarm optimization with time-varying parameter and follower bee search is proposed in this article. In this algorithm, the weight of personal best solution decreases gradually as the iteration continues. This approach eliminates the effect caused by its poorer quality compared to global best solution so that the convergence ability of the algorithm is improved. Furthermore, the follower bee search in artificial bee colony algorithm is introduced to strengthen the randomness of the algorithm and discover more non-dominated solutions. A comparative simulation study is carried out using internal raw ore dispatching in an iron mining group that contains multiple stopes and concentrating mills. The results show that the proposed algorithm can significantly improve convergence and diversity. |
