Abstract
Large-scale constrained optimization problems (LSCOPs) are challenging to solve because of the high dimensionality and constraint limitations. Although cooperative coevolution (CC) has been applied to LSCOPs, more efficient optimizers that could be adapted to CC are still required. In this paper, we propose ConBSO, a variant of the brain storm optimization (BSO) designed for constrained optimization. Then, ConBSO is integrated into constraint-objective cooperative coevolution (COCC), denoted as COCC-ConBSO. To evaluate the performance of COCC-ConBSO, we test it on the benchmark suite with 12 LSCOPs and compared it to several algorithms, including two algorithms based on the COCC framework and three state-of-the-art large-scale constrained optimization algorithms. Experimental results demonstrate the adaptability of ConBSO to COCC and highlight the competitiveness of COCC-ConBSO in solving LSCOPs.
