In this paper we propose a ranking algorithm, HybridABC that is built on swarm based algorithm. In our proposed HybridABC algorithm we merged Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm with Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm. The ABC is a swarm-based metaheuristic algorithm inspired by the intelligent foraging pattern of bees and Differential Evolution is a population-based stochastic search technique. The proposed implementation of ABC has been tested using the LETOR dataset, which is a standard benchmark dataset for evaluating ranking functions. Our results display that our proposed HybridABC can compete and in many cases more efficient than other state-of-the-art algorithm proposed in ranking web pages based on Genetic Algorithm (GA). 2016-01-19T13:09:33Z 2016-01-19T13:09:33Z 2015-12 Thesis ID 10201028 ID 09201009 ID 11201010 http://hdl.handle.net/10361/4892 en application/pdf BRAC University
