This paper presents a literature review about Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Firework, Firefly, Clonal Selection, and Cuckoo Search algorithms, which are among the most common natural-inspired optimization algorithms. These algorithms were tried on different benchmark functions. The obtained results analyzed, performance was compared. showed that PSO Firefly provided best in studied cases.

Multimodal therapy has been recognized as a powerful platform for the precise treatment of cancer. However, reported multimodal therapeutic systems often involve sophisticated components and tedious fabrication procedures. As such, developing nature-inspired easily-obtainable theranostic agents cancer remains challenging. In this work, we propose nanothylakoids agent both in vitro vivo. Nanothy...
