Mohamed A., Oliva D. Handbook of Nature-Inspired Optimization Algorithms: The State of the Art: Volume I

Springer Singapore 2022. — 279 p. — ISBN: 978-3-031-07512-4.The introduction of nature-inspired optimization algorithms (NIOAs), over the past three decades, helped solve nonlinear, high-dimensional, and complex computational optimization problems. NIOAs have been originally developed to overcome the challenges of global optimization problems such as nonlinearity, non-convexity, non-continuity, non-differentiability, and/or multimodality which traditional numerical optimization techniques had difficulties solving.The main objective of this book is to make available a self-contained collection of modern research addressing the general bound-constrained optimization problems in many real-world applications using nature-inspired optimization algorithms. This book is suitable for a graduate class on optimization, but will also be useful for interested senior students working on their research projects.True PDF
