description Abstract The Spider Wasp Optimization (SWO) algorithm is a swarm intelligence optimization technique inspired by the collective behaviors of social animals. This algorithm, designed to address optimization challenges, emulates the unique hunting, nesting, and mating behaviors of female spider wasps. It offers several advantages, including rapid search speed and high solution accuracy. However, when tackling complex optimization problems, it can encounter issues such as getting trapped in local optima, slow early convergence, and the need for manual adjustment of the “Trade-off Rate” (TR) parameter for different problems.To improve the performance and versatility of the SWO algorithm, a Multi-strategy Improved Spider Wasp Optimizer (MISWO) is proposed. Firstly, the Grey Wolf Algorithm is integrated into the initialization phase to enhance early convergence and improve the fitness of the initial population, thereby boosting the algorithm’s global optimization capabilities.Secondly, an adaptive step size operator and Gaussian mutation are introduced during the search phase to automatically adjust the search range at different optimization stages. This enhancement increases both the optimization accuracy and the algorithm’s ability to avoid local optima. The Trade-off Rate (TR) is dynamically selected to better accommodate a variety of problems. Finally, a dynamic lens imaging reverse learning strategy is employed to update optimal individuals, further improving the algorithm’s capacity to escape local optima. To validate the effectiveness of MISWO, it was tested on 23 benchmark functions and 7 engineering optimization problems, and compared with several state-of-the-art algorithms. Experimental results show that MISWO outperforms other algorithms in terms of optimization capability, stability, and adaptability across diverse problems.
