Optimization has been a hot topic due to its inevitably in the development of new algorithms in almost every applied branch of Mathematics. Despite the broadness of optimization techniques in research fields, there is always an open scope of further refinement. We present here an overview of nature-inspired optimization with a subtle background of fundamentals and classification and their reliability applications. An attempt has been made to exhibit the contrast nature of multi objective optimization as compared to single objective optimization. Though there are various techniques to achieve the optimality in optimization problems but nature inspired algorithms have proved to be very efficient and gained special attention in modern research problems. The purpose of this article is to furnish the foundation of few nature inspired optimization techniques and their reliability applications to an interested researcher.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
