Popis: This paper presents a novel Adaptive Mutation Quantum-inspired Squirrel Search Algorithm (AM-QSSA). Firstly, based on the population mutation, a location-update of quantum state correlative and attractor method is proposed. By introducing a random process to modify the sliding factor of the local attractor, the inevitable lack of diversity in the population renewal method is solved. The premature convergence problem of adaptive mutation rate improvement algorithm based on squirrel position update mode is introduced. Meanwhile, the paper decomposes the location update process of the SSA, and improves it with quantum-behavior. Furthermore, it proposes a novel quantum-inspired squirrels search algorithm. This method finds the complementary effect between quantum behavior and squirrel search algorithm, and solves the problem of premature convergence probability of SSA. In addition, it improves population diversity, and achieves the balance between global and local search. The efficiency of the proposed AM-QSSA is evaluated using exploitation analysis, exploration analysis, success rate analysis, convergence rate analysis on classical benchmark functions as well as Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC) 2017 test functions. For further study, AM-QSSA optimizes an image registration problem for an extensive study to check its applicability. The results reveal that AM-QSSA is more efficient and stable than SSA. And it is comparable to the most advanced optimization algorithms.
