The functions listed below are some of the common functions and datasets used for testing optimization algorithms. They are grouped according to similarities in their significant physical properties ...

The Ackley function is widely used for testing optimization algorithms. In its two-dimensional form, as shown in the plot above, it is characterized by a nearly flat outer region, and a large hole at ...

Submodular function optimisation has emerged as a cornerstone of contemporary algorithm design, offering a powerful framework to address a broad range of combinatorial problems characterised by the ...

This communication presents experimental research findings on the application of the flower pollination algorithm (FPA) and the African buffalo optimization (ABO) to implement the complex and fairly ...
