Today, with rapid growth of the World Wide Web and creation of Internet sites and online text resources, text summarization issue is highly attended by various researchers. Extractive-based text summarization is an important summarization method which is included of selecting the top representative sentences from the input document. When, we are facing into large data volume documents, the extr...

Nature-inspired metaheuristic algorithms have attracted much attention in the last decade, and new algorithms have emerged almost every year with a vast, ever-expanding literature. In this chapter, we briefly review two latest metaheuristics: bat algorithm and cuckoo search for global optimization. Bat algorithm was proposed by Xin-She Yang in 2010, inspired by the echolocation of microbats, wh...

This research work intends to propose a system with improved cuckoo searchbased robust ensemble co-clustering algorithm (ICS RECCA) for enzyme clustering. The cuckoo search algorithm has been inspired by the obligate brood parasitism of some cuckoo species by laying their eggs in the nests of other host birds (of other species). Some host birds can engage direct conflict with the intruding cuck...

K-means algorithm is a well-known clustering algorithm. In spite of its advantages such as high speed and ease of employment, this algorithm suffers from the problem of local optima. In order to overcome this problem, a lot of works have been carried out on clustering. This paper presents a hybrid extended cuckoo optimization algorithm (ECOA) and K-means (K) algorithm called ECOA-K. The COA alg...

The cuckoo search algorithm is a novel metaheuristic based on the reproduction behavior of some cuckoo species in combination with the Lévy flight behavior of some birds and fruit flies. It has been applied to a wide range of optimization problems with good performance such as a TSP; nonetheless, it has yet to be applied to the vehicle routing problem, specifically the capacitated vehicle routi...

The search for reliable and efficient global optimization algorithms for solving phase stability and phase equilibrium problems in applied thermodynamics is an ongoing area of research. In this study, we introduce a new algorithm, MAKHA, which is a hybrid between Monkey Algorithm (MA and Krill Herd Algorithm (KHA). Its performance is compared with the two original algorithms along with Cuckoo S...
