might allow sister-sister discrimination. The locations of the cues used in discrimination are not known. Egg-stage switches indicated that eggs or the comb, or their combination, are adequate for discrimination of a sister's comb from a nonsister's. For several reasons (7) we suspect that discrimination cues reside in the comb, not in brood members themselves, and are odors applied by the foun...
متن کاملExperiments with Firefly Algorithm
Firefly Algorithm (FA) is one of the recent swarm intelligence methods developed by Xin-She Yang in 2008 [12]. FA is a stochastic, nature-inspired, metaheuristic algorithm that can be applied for solving the hardest optimization problems. The main goal of this paper is to analyze the influence of changing some parameters of the FA when solving bound constrained optimization problems. One of the...
متن کاملA Gaussian Firefly Algorithm
Firefly algorithm is one of the evolutionary optimization algorithms, and is inspired by fireflies behavior in nature. Each firefly movement is based on absorption of the other one. In this paper to stabilize firefly’s movement, it is proposed a new behavior to direct fireflies movement to global best if there was no any better solution around them. In addition to increase convergence speed it ...
متن کاملModified Firefly Algorithm
Firefly algorithm is one of the new metaheuristic algorithms for optimization problems. The algorithm is inspired by the flashing behavior of fireflies. In the algorithm, randomly generated solutions will be considered as fireflies, and brightness is assigned depending on their performance on the objective function. One of the rules used to construct the algorithm is, a firefly will be attracte...
