A Comprehensive Review of Bio-Inspired Optimization Algorithms Including Applications in Microelectronics and Nanophotonics

The application of artificial intelligence in everyday life is becoming all-pervasive and unavoidable. Within that vast field, a special place belongs to biomimetic/bio-inspired algorithms for multiparameter optimization, which find their use large number areas. Novel methods advances are being published at an accelerated pace. Because that, spite the fact there lot surveys reviews they quickly become dated. Thus, it importance keep pace with current developments. In this review, we first consider possible classification bio-inspired optimization because papers dedicated area relatively scarce often contradictory. We proceed by describing some detail more prominent approaches, as well those most recently published. Finally, biomimetic two related wide fields, namely microelectronics (including circuit design optimization) nanophotonics inverse structures such photonic crystals, nanoplasmonic configurations metamaterials). attempted broad survey self-contained so can be not only scholars but also all interested latest developments attractive area.
