Abstract

The aim of the current paper is to introduce a global optimization algorithm, inspired from the survival strategies of flying foxes during a heatwave, called as Flying Foxes Optimization (FFO). The proposed method exploits a Fuzzy Logic (FL) technique to determine the parameters individually for each solution, thus resulting in a parameters-free optimization algorithm. To evaluate FFO, 56 benchmark functions, including the CEC2017 test function suite and three real-world engineering problems, are employed and its performance is compared to those of state-of-the-art metaheuristics, when it comes to global optimization. The comparison results reveal that the proposed FFO optimizer constitutes a powerful attractive alternative for global optimization.
