Abstract

Water cycle algorithm is a new meta-heuristic optimization algorithm based on the observation of water cycle and how rivers and streams flow downhill towards the sea in the real world. In this paper, a new self-adaptive water cycle algorithm with percolation behavior is proposed. The percolation behavior is introduced to accelerate the convergence speed of proposed algorithm. At the same time, a self-adaptive rainfall process can generate the new stream, more and more new position can be explored, consequently, increasing the diversity of population. Eight typical benchmark functions are tested, the simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is feasible and effective than basic water cycle algorithm, and demonstrate that this proposed algorithm has superior approximation capabilities in high-dimensional space.
