Real-world optimization problems often require an external “modeling engine” that computes fitnesses or data that are then input to an objective function. These programs often have much longer ...

Abstract: Topology optimizations involving evolutionary algorithms are promising approaches to solve practical engineering design problems, since their use of derivation-free algorithms makes them ...

Abstract: The Willow Catkin Optimization Algorithm (WCO) is a newly proposed meta-heuristic algorithm in recent years that has a simple structure and excellent optimization searching ability, but the ...
