“…This saves computation time and provides optimum results. In recent years, metaheuristic algorithms like ant colony optimization (ACO), particle swarm optimization (PSO), genetic algorithm (GA), simulated annealing (SA), invasive weed optimization (IWO), artificial bee colony (ABC), and other evolutionary algorithms have applied in the food manufacturing industry (Wari & Zhu, ). The application of heuristic methods for food safety (Wang, Li, et al, ; Wang, Wang, et al, ) and quality (Hu, Yin, Ma, & Liu, ; Liu et al, ) analysis is growing steadily with significant improvement in overall classification accuracies.…”
