MATLAB Code for BBO Algorithm
The BBO (Biogeography-Based Optimization) algorithm is a nature-inspired optimization technique that draws its principles from the field of biogeography, which studies the distribution of species across different environments. Introduced by Dan Simon in 2008, BBO simulates the migration and colonization processes observed in nature to solve optimization problems. By modeling the exchange of information between […]

The Bat Algorithm: Nature’s Echolocation Inspires Optimization
Echolocation: Nature’s Precision Tool Bats are fascinating creatures. Most species navigate and hunt in the dark using echolocation. They emit a very loud sound pulse and listen to the returning echo. The delay between the sound emission and its echo, along with the change in frequency (Doppler effect), helps the bat determine the distance, direction, […]
Python Code for Firefly Algorithm
The Firefly Algorithm (FA) is a nature-inspired optimization algorithm that simulates the behavior of fireflies. Fireflies are bioluminescent insects that emit light to attract mates and communicate with each other. The FA uses this behavior to find optimal solutions to complex problems, as discussed in the previous lessons (see Introduction to Firefly Algorithm). In the […]
