Abstract: Most of improvement strategies for surrogate-assisted optimiza-tion algorithms fail to help the population quickly locate satis-factory solutions. To address this challenge, a novel framework called dimensionality reduction surrogate-assisted evolutionary (DRSAE) framework is proposed. DRSAE introduces an effi-cient dimensionality reduction network to create a low-dimensional search space, allowing some individuals to search in the population within the reduced space. This strategy signifi-cantly lowers the complexity of the search space and makes it easier to locate promising regions. Meanwhile, a hierarchical search is conducted in the high-dimensional space. Lower-level particles indiscriminately learn from higher-level peers, corre-spondingly the highest-level particles undergo self-mutation. A comprehensive comparison between DRSAE and mainstream HEPs algorithms was conducted using seven widely used benchmark functions. Comparison experiments on problems with dimensionality increasing from 50 to 200 further substanti-ate the good scalability of the developed optimizer.
