Parameters estimation of uncertain fractional-order chaotic systems via a modified artificial bee colony algorithm

Abstract

Parameter estimation for fractional-order chaotic systems has been an interesting and important issue in theory and various fields of application. In this paper, fractional orders, as well as systematic parameters of fractional-order chaotic systems are considered by treating fractional orders as additional parameters. The parameter estimation is transformed into a multidimensional optimization problem, and an effective modified artificial bee colony algorithm is proposed to solve this problem. Numerical simulations are conducted on two typical fractional-order chaotic systems to show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
