Social Harmony Search Algorithm for Continuous Optimization
This paper presents a social harmony search algorithm to solve optimization problems with continuous design variables. Although the Harmony Search (HS) algorithm (HSA) has proven its ability in finding near global regions within a reasonable time, it is rather inefficient in performing local search. The proposed method applies the harmony search optimizer for global optimization and normal dist...

This paper describes a new variant of harmony search algorithmwhich is inspired by awell-known item “elite decision making.” In the new algorithm, the good information captured in the current global best and the second best solutions can be well utilized to generate new solutions, following some probability rule. The generated new solution vector replaces the worst solution in the solution set,...
متن کاملA New Optimization via Invasive Weeds Algorithm for Dynamic Facility Layout Problem
The dynamic facility layout problem (DFLP) is the problem of finding positions of departments onthe plant floor for multiple periods (material flows between departments change during the planning horizon)such that departments do not overlap, and the sum of the material handling and rearrangement costs isminimized. In this paper a new optimization algorithm inspired from colonizing weeds, Invasi...
متن کاملDISCRETE SIZE AND DISCRETE-CONTINUOUS CONFIGURATION OPTIMIZATION METHODS FOR TRUSS STRUCTURES USING THE HARMONY SEARCH ALGORITHM
Many methods have been developed for structural size and configuration optimization in which cross-sectional areas are usually assumed to be continuous. In most practical structural engineering design problems, however, the design variables are discrete. This paper proposes two efficient structural optimization methods based on the harmony search (HS) heuristic algorithm that treat both discret...
