The running process of the algorithm is provided through a pseudo code. The performances of the ABC and MABC are analyzed from two aspects:convergence performance and algorithm complexity. Using 10 typical functions as test cases, Experiments are carried out in four aspects:result precision, convergence speed, segmentation parameters and running time. It is shown that the MABC algorithm is superior to the ABC algorithm in terms of accuracy and convergence speed. %U https://journal.bupt.edu.cn/EN/10.13190/j.jbupt.2019-063
