Summary:
Cuckoo Search (CS) and Differential Evolution (DE) are multipoint search metaheuristics proposed for continuous optimization problems. Both methods show relatively high performance among similar methods. In addition, it is easy to use because there are few preset parameters by the user. Moreover, they have the common feature of being easy to implement because they are simple algorithms. On the other hand, CS is a global search type method, and DE is a local search type method. In this study, we proposed a hybrid method that utilizes generation update of DE and Le ́vy flight of CS. We also performed numerical experiments using the benchmark test suite, com- pared the performance with conventional CS and DE, and confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed method.
