A Novel Global Convergence Algorithm: Bee Collecting Pollen Algorithm

Inspired by the behavior of the honeybees' collecting pollen, Bee Collecting Pollen Algorithm (BCPA) is proposed in this paper. This is a novel global convergence searching algorithm. It simulates the behavior of the honeybees' collecting pollen and describes the swarm intelligent. The experiment for TSP shows that the improve algorithm is more efficient.
