Introduction
• PSO– Particle swarm optimization (PSO) was developed by Kennedy
and Eberhart in 1995– based on the swarm behavior such as fish and bird schooling in
nature, the so-called swarm intelligence– Though particle swarm optimization has many similarities with
genetic algorithms, but it is much simpler because it does not use mutation/crossover operators
– Instead, it uses the real-number randomness and the global communication among the swarming particles. In this sense, it is also easier to implement as it uses mainly real numbers
• FA– particle swarm optimization is just a special class of the
firefly algorithms

Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO)
• The PSO algorithm searches the space of the objective functions by adjusting the trajectories of individual agents, called particles, as the piecewise paths formed by positional vectors in a quasi-stochastic manner
• The particle movement has two major components– stochastic component– deterministic component

Behavior of Fireflies
• The flashing light of fireflies is an amazing sight in the summer sky in the tropical and temperate regions
• There are about two thousand firefly species, and most fireflies produce short and rhythmic flashes
• The pattern of flashes is often unique
for a particular species

Behavior of Fireflies
• Two fundamental functions of such flashes are– to attract mating partners (communication)– to attract potential prey
• Females respond to a male’s unique pattern of flashing in the same species
• We know that the light intensity at a particular distance ‘r’ from the light source obeys the inverse square law
• The air absorbs light which becomes weaker and weaker as the distance increases
• The flashing light can be formulated in such
a way that it is associated with the
objective function

Firefly Algorithm
• For simplicity in describing our new FA we now use the following three idealized rules:– all fireflies are unisex so that one firefly will be attracted to
other fireflies regardless of their sex– Attractiveness is proportional to their brightness, thus for any
two flashing fireflies, the less brighter one will move towards the brighter one. If there is no brighter one than a particular firefly, it will move randomly
– The brightness of a firefly is affected or determined by the landscape of the objective function. For a maximization problem, the brightness can simply
be proportional to the value of the
objective function

Conclusions
• we have formulated a new firefly algorithm and analyzed its similarities and differences with particle swarm optimization
• We then implemented and compared these algorithms• Our simulation results for finding the global optima of
various test functions suggest that particle swarm often outperforms traditional algorithms such as genetic algorithms, while the new
firefly algorithm is superior to both PSO and
GA in terms of both efficiency and
success rate

Eagle Strategy (ES)
• Based on the foraging behavior of eagles such as golden eagles.
• An eagle forages in its own territory by flying freely in a random manner much like the Levy flights.
• Once the prey is sighted, the eagle will change its search strategy to an intensive chasing tactics so as to catch the prey as efficiently as possible.
