Abstract

To overcome the weaknesses of the artificial lemming optimization algorithm, such as insufficient convergence accuracy and susceptibility to local optima in complex optimization problems, an artificial lemming algorithm integrated with a defensive interaction mechanism is proposed. Firstly, the population's adaptive adjustment factor is utilized to dynamically balance the exploration and exploitation capabilities of the algorithm. Secondly, a random masking dimension learning strategy is adopted to enhance problem-solving capabilities in complex search spaces. Furthermore, a defensive interaction mechanism is introduced to strengthen the ability to escape from local optima. Finally, a chaotic Gaussian mixture mutation strategy is incorporated to improve local exploitation accuracy during the later stages of the optimization process. To validate the effectiveness and practicality of the proposed algorithm, comparative experiments were conducted against several state-of-the-art algorithms on the CEC2017 and CEC2022 test sets, and it was applied to solving three engineering optimization problems. Results demonstrate that the IALA algorithm consistently achieved the top Friedman average rank; compared to the original algorithm, its mean error decreased by 28.62%, and the standard deviation decreased by 44.31% on average. In practical engineering applications, IALA demonstrates strong applicability and superior performance.
