Influence of initialization on the performance of metaheuristic optimizers [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Soft Computing, 2020
All metaheuristic optimization algorithms require some initialization, and the initialization for such optimizers is usually carried out randomly. However, initialization can have some significant influence on the performance of such algorithms. This paper presents a systematic comparison of 22 different initialization methods on the convergence and ...
