“…Tabu search [10], simulated annealing [11], artificial ant colonies [12], [13], particle swarms [14], honey bee colony algorithm [15,16], gravitational search algorithm [17], artificial neural networks [18] and fuzzy logic [19,20] have also been investigated for capacitor allocation in EDS. The compromise between the quality of solutions and the processing times, and the development of simple algorithms are challenges for these types of methods.…”
