dc.description.abstractThe most important and demanding part of the artificial neural network is the training process which involves finding the most suitable values for the weights in the network architecture, a challenging optimization problem. Gradient approaches and the meta-heuristic approaches are two methods extensively used to optimize the weights in the network. Gradient approaches have serious disadvantages including getting stuck in local optima, inadequate exploration, etc. To overcome these disadvantages, meta-heuristic approaches are preferred in training the artificial neural network instead of gradient methods. Therefore, in this study, an improved animal migration optimization algorithm with the Levy flight feature was proposed to train the multilayer perceptron. The proposed hybrid algorithm is named IAMO-MLP. The main contributions of this article are that the IAMO algorithm was developed, the IAMO-MLP algorithm can successfully escape from local optima, and the initial positions did not affect the performance of the IAMO-MLP algorithm. The enhanced algorithm was tested and validated against a wider set of benchmark functions and indicated that it substantially outperformed the original implementation. Afterward, the IAMO-MLP was compared with ten algorithms on five classification problems (xor, balloon, iris, breast cancer, and heart) and one real-world problem in terms of mean squared error, classification accuracy, and nonparametric statistical Friedman test. According to the results, the IAMO was successful in training the multilayer perceptron.en_US
