Abstract
Harmony Search(HS) algorithm is an emerging meta-heuristic optimization algorithm, which is inspired by the music improvisation process and has been successfully applied to solve different optimization problems. In order to further improve the performance of HS, this paper proposes a new method which is called Fast Harmony Search(FSH) algorithm. For the purpose, this paper suggest a method to unify two independent improvisation processes by newly defining the boundary value of a object variable using HM. As the result, the process time of the algorithm is shorten and explicit decision of bandwidth is no more needed. Furthermore, exploitative power of random selection is improved. The numerical results reveal that the proposed algorithm can find better solutions and is faster when compared to the conventional HS.
