• Abstract: This paper introduces a Multi-Strategy Improved Black Widow Optimization Algorithm (MSBWOA), designed to enhance the performance of the standard Black Widow Algorithm (BW) in solving complex optimization problems. The proposed algorithm integrates four key strategies: initializing the population using Tent chaotic mapping to enhance diversity and initial exploratory capability; implementing mutation optimization on the least fit individuals to maintain dynamic population and prevent premature convergence; incorporating a non-linear inertia weight to balance global exploration and local exploitation; and adding a random perturbation strategy to enhance the algorithm's ability to escape local optima. Evaluated through a series of standard test functions, the MSBWOA demonstrates significant performance improvements in various dimensions, particularly in convergence speed and solution quality. Experimental results show that compared to the traditional BW algorithm and other existing optimization methods, the MSBWOA exhibits better stability and efficiency in handling a variety of optimization problems. These findings validate the effectiveness of the proposed strategies and offer a new solution approach for complex optimization challenges.

  The integration of constrained optimization models as components in deep networks has led to promising advances on many specialized learning tasks. A central challenge in this setting is backpropagation through the solution of an optimization problem, which often lacks a closed form. This paper provides theoretical insights into the backward pass of unrolled optimization, showing that it is equivalent to the solution of a linear system by a particular iterative method. A system called Folded Optimization is proposed to construct more efficient backpropagation rules from unrolled solver implementations.
