The artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm is well known and widely used optimization method based on swarm intelligence, and it is inspired by the behavior of honeybees searching for a high amount of nectar from the flower. However, this algorithm has not been exploited sufficiently. This research paper proposes a novel method to analyze the exploration and exploitation of ABC. In ABC, the scout bee searches for a source of random food for exploitation. Along with random search, the scout bee is guided by a modified genetic algorithm approach to locate a food source with a high nectar value. The proposed algorithm is applied for the design of a nonlinear controller for a continuously stirred tank reactor (CSTR). The statistical analysis of the results confirms that the proposed modified hybrid artificial bee colony (HMABC) achieves consistently better performance than the traditional ABC algorithm. The results are compared with conventional ABC and nonlinear PID (NLPID) to show the superiority of the proposed algorithm. The performance of the HMABC algorithm-based controller is competitive with other state-of-the-art meta-heuristic algorithm-based controllers in the literature.

In this paper, an algorithm is proposed for efficient compression of bio-signals based on discrete Tchebichef moments and Artificial Bee Colony (ABC). The Tchebichef moments are used to extract features of the bio-signals, then, the ABC algorithm is used to select of the optimum features which achieve the best bio-signal quality for a specific compression ratio (CR). The proposed algorithm has been tested by using different datasets of Electrocardio-gram (ECG), Electroencephalogram (EEG), and Electromyogram (EMG). The optimum feature selection using ABC significantly improve the quality of the reconstructed bio-signals. Different numerical experiments are performed to compress different records of ECG, EEG and EMG bio-signals by using the proposed algorithm and the most recent existing methods. The performance of the proposed algorithm and the other existing methods are evaluated using different metrics such as CR, PRD, and peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR). The comparison has shown that, at the same CR, the proposed compression algorithm yields the best quality of the reconstructed signals over the other existing methods.
