A Cuckoo Search Algorithm for Multimodal Optimization

Algorithm 2

Nonsignificant fitness value rule procedure.

(1)  Input:  𝐞^𝑘_𝑖,𝐞^best,𝑘,𝐞^worst,𝑘

(2)  Calculate 𝑝(𝐞^𝑘_𝑖,𝐞^best,𝑘,𝐞^worst,𝑘)=1−𝑓𝐞^𝑘_𝑖−𝑓𝐞^best,𝑘/𝑓𝐞^worst,𝑘−𝑓𝐞^best,𝑘

(3)  Calculate 𝑃(𝑝)=𝑝0.5≤𝑝≤100≤𝑝<0.5

(5)  if  (rand(0,1)≤𝑃)  then

(6)     𝐞^𝑘_𝑖 is considered a local optimum   With probability 𝑃

(7)  else

(8)     𝐞^𝑘_𝑖 is ignored            With probability 1−𝑃

(9)  end  if
