Abstract

To address the issue that the Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm (AOA) is not applicable to discrete binary type optimization problems, we propose a novel algorithm: the Discrete Binary Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm employing a variant of the Sigmoid function (BAOA_S) . This algorithm is capable of overcoming the challenge of the original AOA’s inability to optimize discrete binary variables. In addition, we propose a Multi-Swarm Binary Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm (MS-BAOA) employing a mutation strategy to divide the original population into multiple sub-swarms that communicate with one another through the use of specific communication strategies. The mutation strategy is then employed to enhance population diversity, addressing a weakness of the BAOA_S algorithm: the challenge of escaping local optimal solutions. We evaluated MS-BAOA against BAOA_S, Binary Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm (BPSO) , Binary Gray Wolf Optimization Algorithm (BGWO) , Binary Fish Migration Optimization Algorithm (BFMO) , and Binary Equilibrium Optimizer(BiEO) based on the CEC2013 benchmark function, and the experimental results showed that MS-BAOA is generally superior to the other algorithms. Furthermore, we apply MS-BAOA to solve the fault localization problem of distribution networks, and the experimental results show that the algorithm can realize the fast and accurate localization of single-point faults and multi-point faults in distribution networks further verifying the effectiveness of the algorithm.
