Biogeography-Based Optimization (BBO) has recently gained interest of researchers due to its simplicity in implementation, efficiency and existence of very few parameters. The BBO algorithm is a new type of optimization technique based on biogeography concept. This population-based algorithm uses the idea of the migration strategy of animals or other species for solving optimization problems. t...

determining the distribution of heavy metals in groundwater is important in developing appropriate management strategies at mine sites. in this paper, the application of artificial intelligence (ai) methods to data analysis,namely artificial neural network (ann), hybrid ann with biogeography-based optimization (ann-bbo), and multi-output adaptive neural fuzzy inference system (manfis) to estima...

Biogeography-Based Optimization (BBO) algorithm has recently been of great interest to researchers for simplicity of implementation, efficiency, and the low number of parameters. The BBO Algorithm in optimization problems is one of the new algorithms which have been developed based on the biogeography concept. This algorithm uses the idea of animal migration to find suitable habitats for solvin...

In this paper, a consistent pattern with the optimal coordinated design of PSS and SSSC controller to improve the damping of low frequency oscillations is shown. In this design, sensing and signal transmission time delays are considered as effectiveness parameters. The design problem has been considered an optimization problem and biogeography-based optimization (BBO) algorithm is used for sear...

Mathematical models of biogeography inspired the development of the biogeography-based optimization algorithm. In this article we propose a binary version of biogeography-based optimization (BBO) for the Knapsack Problem. Two new mutation operators are proposed to extend the biogeography-based optimization algorithm to binary optimization problems. We also demonstrate the performance of the res...

Biogeography Based Optimization (BBO) algorithm is a population-based algorithm based on biogeography concept, which uses the idea of the migration strategy of animals or other spices for solving optimization problems. Biogeography Based Optimization algorithm has a simple procedure to find the optimal solution for the non-smooth and non-convex problems through the steps of migration and mutati...
