Metaheuristics: Outlines, MATLAB Codes and Examples

Download or read book Metaheuristics: Outlines, MATLAB Codes and Examples written by Ali Kaveh and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-03-29 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents eight well-known and often used algorithms besides nine newly developed algorithms by the first author and his students in a practical implementation framework. Matlab codes and some benchmark structural optimization problems are provided. The aim is to provide an efficient context for experienced researchers or readers not familiar with theory, applications and computational developments of the considered metaheuristics. The information will also be of interest to readers interested in application of metaheuristics for hard optimization, comparing conceptually different metaheuristics and designing new metaheuristics.
