A Survey of Harmony Search Algorithm
نویسندگان
چکیده
Harmony Search (HS) is a meta-heuristic algorithm which bases its operation on the musical improvisation process. Recently, HS has become a popular algorithm in the evolutionary computation fielddue to its superiority to many other algorithms. As a consequence, in this paper, HS algorithm, its improvements and applications in many fields, such as operations research and computer science, are discussed and analyzed. The survey investigates the difference between HS algorithms as well as its applications. To add to this, several future improvements are suggested.

SHAPE OPTIMIZATION OF STRUCTURES BY MODIFIED HARMONY SEARCH
The main aim of the present study is to propose a modified harmony search (MHS) algorithm for size and shape optimization of structures. The standard harmony search (HS) algorithm is conceptualized using the musical process of searching for a perfect state of the harmony. It uses a stochastic random search instead of a gradient search. The proposed MHS algorithm is designed based on elitism. In...
