A Review of Firefly Algorithm
نویسندگان
چکیده
Firefly algorithm is one of the swarm intelligence that evolve fast for almost area of optimization and engineering problems. Stand alone firefly algorithm already has managed to solve problems. For problems that have multi dimensional and nonlinear problem, some modification or even hybridization with the other metaheuristic is advisable. This modification and hybridization is to aim for help for the computational constrain and it will become more flexible and more efficient.
