A novel metaheuristic optimization algorithm: the monarchy metaheuristic

open access: yesTURKISH JOURNAL OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING & COMPUTER SCIENCES, 2019
In this paper, we introduce a novel metaheuristic optimization algorithm named the monarchy metaheuristic (MN). Our proposed metaheuristic was inspired by the monarchy government system. Unlike many other metaheuristics, it is easy to implement and does not need a lot of parameters. This makes it applicable to a wide range of optimization problems.

On the use of biased-randomized algorithms for solving non-smooth optimization problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Soft constraints are quite common in real-life applications. For example, in freight transportation, the fleet size can be enlarged by outsourcing part of the distribution service and some deliveries to customers can be postponed as well; in inventory ...
