Abstract:In the last decade nature-inspired Optimizers such as genetic algorithms (GAs), particle swarm (PSO), ant colony (ACO), honey bees (HB), bacteria feeding (BFO), firefly (FF), bat algorithm (BTO), invasive weed (IWO) and others algorithms, has been successfully adopted as a powerful optimization tools in several areas of applied engineering, and in particular for the solution of complex electromagnetic problems. This chapter is aimed at presenting an overview of nature inspired optimization algorithms (NIOs) as… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
