DEVELOPMENT OF A SMELL AGENT OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHM FOR COMBINATORIAL OPTIMIZATION PROBLEMS

Abstract:

This thesis presents the development of smell agent optimization (SAO) algorithm. The developed algorithm consists of three modes (sniffing, trailing and random modes). The evaporation of smell molecules from the smell source is modelled into sniffing mode using the concept of the hydrostatic…
