One of the main issues with heuristics and meta-heuristics is the local optima stagnation phenomena. It is often called premature convergence, which refers to the assumption of a …
Nature-inspired algorithms take inspiration from living things and imitate their behaviours to accomplish robust systems in engineering and computer science discipline. Symbiotic …
This paper proposes a modified version of the Dwarf Mongoose Optimization Algorithm (IDMO) for constrained engineering design problems. This optimization technique modifies …
Notwithstanding the superior performance of the Whale optimization algorithm (WOA) on a wide range of optimization issues, the exploitation in WOA gets more preference during the …
The COVID-19 is one of the most significant obstacles that humanity is now facing. The use of computed tomography (CT) images is one method that can be utilized to recognize …
The symbiotic organisms search (SOS) algorithm was introduced by considering the relationships among the creatures in a natural ecosystem. Despite the superior efficiency of …
Abstract The conventional Butterfly Optimization Algorithm (BOA) does not appropriately balance the exploration and exploitation characteristics of an algorithm to solve present-day …
Slime mold algorithm (SMA) is a meta-heuristic optimization technique based on nature's slime module oscillation modes. Like other meta-heuristic algorithms, SMA is prone to poor …
The local optima stagnation is a major issue with all meta-heuristic algorithms. In this paper, a hybrid slime mould algorithm (SMA) is proposed with the aid of quadratic approximation to …
