Socio-cognitive Optimization of Time-delay Control Problems using Evolutionary Metaheuristics
This work addresses time-delay system optimization, which is a domain-specific problem, and appears incremental as it builds on existing metaheuristic approaches.
The authors tackled the optimization of time-delay control problems by constructing a novel socio-cognitive metaheuristic based on castes and applying it to selected variants, but the abstract does not provide concrete numerical results.
Metaheuristics are universal optimization algorithms which should be used for solving difficult problems, unsolvable by classic approaches. In this paper we aim at constructing novel socio-cognitive metaheuristic based on castes, and apply several versions of this algorithm to optimization of time-delay system model. Besides giving the background and the details of the proposed algorithms we apply them to optimization of selected variants of the problem and discuss the results.
