“…Results obtained by the FPA outperformed those by well-known algorithms including genetic algorithms (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO). Moreover, the FPA algorithms were proved for the global convergent property [18] and successfully applied to many real-world engineering problems, for example, pressure vessels design [16], disc break design [17], electrical power system [19], image processing [20], wireless sensor networking [21], clustering [22], global function optimization [23], computer gaming [24], structural engineering [25], control system design [26][27][28][29] and model identification [30]. The state-of-the-art and applications of the FPA have been reviewed and reported [31].…”
