Everything about Bees algorithm
Population-based search algorithm
In computer science and operations research, the bees algorithm is a population-based search algorithm which was developed by Pham, Ghanbarzadeh et al. in 2005. It mimics the food foraging behaviour of honey bee colonies. In its basic form, the algorithm combines local neighbourhood search with global exploration of the search space. It can be used for both combinatorial optimization and continuous optimization. The only condition for the application of the bees algorithm is that some measure of distance between the solutions is defined. A number of studies have demonstrated the specific capabilities and effectiveness of the bees algorithm. Wikipedia →
