Improved aquila optimizer for swarm-based solutions to complex engineering problems.

The traditional optimization approaches suffer from certain problems like getting stuck in local optima, low speed, susceptibility to local optima, and searching unknown search spaces, thus requiring reliance on single-based solutions. Herein, an Improved Aquila Optimizer (IAO) is proposed, which is a unique meta-heuristic optimization method motivated by the hunting behavior of Aquila. An improved version of Aquila optimizer seeks to increase effectiveness and productivity.

Comparative analysis of the gazelle Optimizer and its variants.

The Gazelle Optimization Algorithm (GOA) is an innovative nature-inspired metaheuristic algorithm, designed to mimic the agile and efficient hunting strategies of gazelles. Despite its promising performance in solving complex optimization problems, there is still a significant scope for enhancing its efficiency and robustness. This paper introduces several novel variants of GOA, integrating adaptive strategy, Levy flight strategy, Roulette wheel selection strategy, and random walk strategy.
