Being inspired by natural phenomena and available biological processes in the nature is one of the difficult methods of problem solving in computer sciences. Evolutionary methods are a set of algorithms that are inspired from the nature and are based on their evolutionary mechanisms. Unlike other optimizing methods of problem solving, evolutionary algorithms do not require any prerequisites and usually offer solutions very close to optimized answers. Based on their behavior, evolutionary algorithms are divided into two categories of biological processes based on plant behavior and animal behavior. Various evolutionary algorithms have been proposed so far to solve optimization problems, some of which include evolutionary algorithm of invasive weed and flower pollination algorithm that are inspired by plants and krill algorithm inspired by the animal algorithm of sea animals. In this paper, a comparison is made for the first time between the accuracy and rate of involvement in local optimization of these new evolutionary algorithms to identify the best algorithm in terms of efficiency. Results of various tests show that invasive weed algorithm is more efficient and accurate than flower pollination and krill algorithms.
